When you're stuck on the shoulder with a flat, the emergency tire kit in your trunk needs to fit your vehicle and work without fuss. Two OEM options are worth weighing: the 2015-2020 Ford F150 Spare Tire Emergency Jack & Tool Kit and the Subaru Emergency Spare Tire Jack Assy W/Tools & Lug Wrench. Both are factory-style kits, but they're built for different vehicles, so your choice starts with what you drive.
Quick Verdict
If you own a 2015-2020 Ford F-150, the Ford kit is the direct fit. If your car is one of the compatible Subaru models, the Subaru kit is USD 53.40 less expensive. From there, your decision comes down to condition and included tools, which are laid out below.

Where Each Product Wins
The Ford kit wins for F-150 owners who want a factory-style part in new other condition. The Subaru kit wins for Subaru owners who want the lower price and the included lug wrench. Each kit is tied to a specific vehicle family: the Ford for F-150, the Subaru for the model range shown in the table.
Product Notes
Ford F150 Spare Tire Jack & Tool Kit
This OEM kit is made for 2015-2020 F-150 trucks, so if that's what you drive, fitment is the least of your worries. It's listed as new other, meaning the part isn't used, and the set comes with a jack and tool kit. The price is the highest of the two at USD 139.99, but you're paying for a closer-to-new part for a full-size truck. The seller also asks you to coordinate returns within 14 days, which is a tighter window than the Subaru kit offers. For an F-150 owner who wants a ready-to-install factory-style spare-tire setup, this is the one to take.
Subaru Emergency Spare Tire Jack Assy
This used OEM kit is the less expensive pick for a wide swath of Subaru owners: it fits 2010-2014 Outback, 2010-2014 Legacy, and 2013-2023 Crosstrek per the listing. You get a scissor jack, tools, and a wheel wrench, and the whole setup was pulled from a 2011 Outback with minimal wear. The listing notes it works properly, and there's a free 30-day return window, though no labor warranty. The listing also puts fitment responsibility on the buyer. At USD 86.59, it's the cheaper way to get a factory-style spare-tire setup for a compatible Subaru.
Final Choice by Use Case
- You drive a 2015-2020 Ford F-150: Choose the Ford F150 Spare Tire Emergency Jack & Tool Kit. It's the OEM-specific kit for your truck, and its new other condition sets it apart from a used part.
- You drive a listed model of Outback, Legacy, or Crosstrek: Choose the Subaru Emergency Spare Tire Jack Assy. It includes a wheel wrench, costs less, and comes with a 30-day return window.
- You drive something else: These kits are designed for the Ford and Subaru models listed, so if your vehicle isn't in those groups, you'll need to consider a different emergency tire kit.
