This question is aimed at those of you who have different width rims mounted,
like 8's in front and 9's in the rear on flared cars. If you carry a spare, what size do you carry? |

I built a bracket from a 914 A/C cover bracket. Welded it on the gas tank firewall in the same place as Paul. My Space-Saver is on a Fuchs 15” 6 to match my 8” and 9” 16 ‘s
I could find no 16” Space-Saver even on 16” cars of any brand. Andy, can’t you put a Fuchs in the back trunk? Bob |

QUOTE(burton73 @ May 4 2008, 09:18 PM)  I could find no 16” Space-Saver even on 16” cars of any brand. Andy, can’t you put a Fuchs in the back trunk? uhm, i never said anything about a space saver... and yes, that's exactly what i said. i'm going to go with a 6" wheel and a 185 or 195 tire. no space saver needed ... it's just that my current cookie cutter 7" with 225 tire is too wide and the top hits the tire and i can't lock the top into the rubber holders. the lid still closes (barely) but the top rubs on the tire. so, going down to a 6" rim with a smaller tire should give me enough room to fit the top over it ...
