Where is located the spare tire on a FIAT 500?
The FIAT 500 looks pretty compact—which I like—but where do they put the spare tire on it?

Nowhere. The FIAT 500 does not come with a spare tire. Instead, it comes with a tire repair kit.
Here’s how to use your tire repair kit if you ever find yourself on the side of the road with a flat:
- Make sure you’re in a safe area away from traffic.
- Turn your hazard blinkers on.
- Retrieve your tire repair kit from the floor storage area in the rear of your car.
- Put the parking brake on and turn off the ignition.
- Place the repair kit next to the damaged tire.
- Connect the kit’s hose to the valve stem of your tire and select the sealant mode.
- Connect the repair kit power cord to your FIAT’s power outlet, and turn on the pump.
- Sealant will begin flowing into the flat tire. Allow the kit to continue running until all of the sealant has flowed into the tire.
- After the sealant has found its way into the tire, the pump immediately begins to fill the tire with air.
- Allow the pump to fill the tire to 32 psi.
- When your tire has reached 32 psi, turn off the pump and place it back in the storage area.
After you have repaired your tire, you’ll need to drive around for about 10 minutes to make sure that the sealant has been distributed around the tire.
Keep in mind that all FIATs come with a 5-year / 60,000-mile factory warranty that includes roadside assistance. If your car is still under warranty, you may be able to simply call somebody to come and repair your flat tire for free.
If your warranty has expired and you don’t really want to have to deal with flat tires on your own, you can find great deals for
