how about a spare from the same type car that you got the 16" Fuchs from???? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

one thing to consider, most of these spares have never been used and have been folded up for how many years....I finally used mine on my 911, the spare had never been used before and it just sat in front trunk for 10 years and the darn thing only holds air for about a day (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif)

Mine hold it for as long as I'm pumping it. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) I plan to use the flat fix goop to see if it works...

These 944 or Boxster narrow, no collapse:
