Welcome to PriusChat. You might start looking here. There were 267 replies to that thread. For the most part we don't talk about the need for a spare tire. It's a Murphy's Law sort of thing, bringing up the possibility of a flat tire, and none of us want to increase that probability. If one wants to be logical about this, look back over X number of years of driving and add up the number of flats you have had. Massage the data with weighting toward the very recent past with newer tire designs and maybe less junk on the road. You will find that a flat tire is relatively improbable. Now I'm going to have to throw some salt over my left shoulder and walk around my chair three times to dismiss the temptation I just let go.

I know when I bought my 2020 LE, that only the LE came with the spare tire and the fitted foam to store it nicely. It may be true in other years. So if you can find an LE in a salvage yard that would be one way. If I remember correctly from postings, to order a new spare and fitted foam was about $2,500
