I have a 2018 SR5 4 wheel drive (my 5th 4Runner over the years!) with P265/70R17 tires.
the manual says models with P245/60R20 has a pattern that includes the spare, whereas all vehicles w/o the P245/60R20 has a pattern that does not include the spare...does anyone know the rational for this.
since mine is 4 wheel drive it would be nice to have even wear on all 5 tires should I need the spare.
thanks in advance..

I changed some lights, tires and tinted windows...mind blowing huh

I have never included the spare when I rotate, so far so good, also the spare rim is different than the other 4 and my OCD will not allow that
