The spare tire well can rust from moisture collected because it's the lowest part of the trunk, so if there's any leaks around the trunk seal, rear panel or anywhere from above around the rear window all the water ends up in the spare tire well. It's fairly easy to inspect, first by looking underneath to see if there's any signs of pin holes or worse, then open the trunk and remove the spare tire cover and spare tire to inspect the sheet metal directly.
