Do Smartliner cargo liners work with spare tire wells?
Yes, they do, but you must select the correct liner option for your exact vehicle. Because the presence or size of a spare tire (such as a full-size versus a compact spare) physically changes the dimensions, height, and contours of the trunk floor, a single liner cannot universally fit all setups.
Specific Options Available: For many vehicles with optional spare tire wells — such as the Ford Bronco Sport, Toyota Sienna, Chevrolet Cruze, and Infiniti Q50 — Smartliner manufactures distinct custom-fit cargo liners specifically tailored for models "With Spare Tire" and models "Without Spare Tire".
Accessing the Spare Tire: Smartliner cargo liners are designed to cover the vehicle's cargo spaces or trunk areas. All Smartliner products are 3D scanned and custom-fit to perfectly match the manufacturer's exact dimensions. Because the liner is specifically molded to cover the entire floor footprint of your cargo area, it will naturally cover any access panels for an under-floor spare tire well. Furthermore, the liners are made from a semi-flexible rubber and plastic blend that provides rigidity to help them maintain their shape and raised lip edge. Given this somewhat rigid material, you would likely need to lift or temporarily remove the cargo liner in order to access a spare tire stored underneath the floor.
