Couple of years ago I took a long hard look at this ........ and yes there was a space saver spare for the RcF and GsF....

But only for.......waiting for this for the Pacific Islands and Singapore

I happen to be in Singapore so went to the boutique Lexus dealer there and sure enough there was a space saver in the boot of both cars....I obtained the part numbers and so on and they were in stock in Singapore but only for sale there to residents thereof 🙄

And here it is and the tools and cover.....

I too had a good look at this 3  years ago and I discovered that a spare is listed on Lexus USA website but it was not confirmed it would fit  the GSF/RCF. I also raised a query  with Lexus Customer Services who didn't want to answer me until I threatened to ask  their MD Euan Shepherd to see it he knew the answer. The answer I got then was this:

"I have contacted our Product Team who have confirmed that Toyota GB vehicles are not imported with a spare wheel as part of the car's homologated design, hence Toyota GB would not be able add to a vehicle that has been designed as such for sale in a particular market for that country.

Again I apologise that it is not possible to supply a spare wheel for your Lexus vehicle."

So to recap, it seems that a spare wheel is available but we are not allowed to have it because of some approval condition.
