QUOTE asked guy at a tire shop once if a collapsable tire could be intalled on a any rim and he said ... nope Did he say why? The tire shop I went to said he could put a full size tire on my space saver rim. I said what's the point. It does have two air valves on the space saver. The guy said they were so you can deflate it faster but I don't fully buy that. Felix |

I've got a factory 914 four bolt space-saver that
came with the car when new. I don't think it's ever been on the ground- looks like new. It's not the collapsing style- it's one of the smaller doughnut types. I'll probably be selling it since I'm going 5 bolt. rezron |

QUOTE(rdauenhauer @ May 28 2004, 11:49 AM) I also once saw a steel gas can that was supposed to be available OE from MB. The trick feature was it was circular and designed to fir INSIDE of a 15" spare. Im sure I saw it offered in a Gorits catalog yrs ago but not currently. Anyone seen one of these or know where to get one? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) Like this (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool_shades.gif) No idea where you can get one, I was told it was an option on a BMW, or was it MB, can't remember.
