Where can I get a space saver tire and rim for my 5 lug 914? I have wheel spacers and long studs will that matter for the rim style?
Thanks, Buck Attached thumbnail(s) Attached image(s) |

The width shouldn't be an issue but caliper clearance with a big brake car can be,from memory the 944 15''steel spacesaver is a no go or atleast for my car with 944s2 4 pots,the clearance is too fine for me.
The steel one is very heavy but the 964 alloy one I have is really much lighter,getting very spendy for these now but they are around. I have a early 944 air compressor which is a good unit and cheaper than the 911 type . I can't use a vertical tire mount due to the regulation police in my country but I would really like one as it would free up some more storage space. |
