Hi guys,
My car is a 76 with 4 lug Fuchs, including the 17mm lug bolts. 1. What size tire fits comfortably (flat) in the bottom of the frunk? The one I currently have is new but is too big to drop in. 2. What do you guys do to mitigate the long lug bolts on the fuchs when you have a steel wheel for a spare? I realize a fuch spare would be ideal, but mine is steel. Thanks |

Lug bolts that are too long will screw right through the hub and hit the rotor. The proper short bolts should cost just a couple bucks.
