It should be in the right rear, behind the plastic panal. You have to take off those large plastic screws. And thats if its still there

I suggest getting one of those small 12v air compressors to fill the spare instead of relying on the gas canister.

Re: GTA Spare Wheel

Don't think I've got the gas canister. Will get a foot pump or the 12v compressor. Thnks for the advice.
