The spare does not mount face out as pictured does it ? Anyone have experience removing a space saver and installing on a Fuchs ? I got a 15” Space saver from Bruce Stone several years ago. Removed it from the Steel wheel and put it on the Fuchs. Sorry let me start with, First, we filled it with air and then let the air out and it stays in a tall contour. Remove it and mount on Fuchs. Once it was on the Fuchs it takes a bat to hit the tire for it to lay flat. I guess there is some spring steel in the tread body that punches it up. This worked for the shop next door to my shop to do it. They said it was hard. I was the one that hade to use the bat on it. Same bat I used to roll my wheel arches on my 911. I recently had it removed from the local tire shop and both the wheel and tire are fine. Bob B (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) |
