Will a space saver spare from a 924 work on a 914? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Hi Jon -
My car is pretty low and has fiberglass bumpers - I figure other than a wall, everything will be most likely coming up and over the top and through the glass! In all seriousness, I figure that without the tire lying down it will be easier for the nose to crumple, therefore absorbing energy. The tire laid flat is pretty rigid, so I would think that it would be more likely to deform the front firewall/gas tank area, actually causing more damage to the pedal box area. I hope none of us ever have to find out if this theory is correct or not.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) |
