I tried to sort the spare wheel today but i'm not sure how they fit.

I have original steel wheel with 165/15 tyre however it sits higher than what i assume is the shelf stand. no matter how i position it, it seems wrong for the shelf to fit on top.

If i raise the rear end (by the tank wall) it sits higher tjere and the hold down bracket doesn't line up. no accident damage or other repairs done in that area.

There was no spare when i bought it so i have no reference.

There should be nothing under your tire.. whats that white thing? Bolts flat directly to the trunk floor.

That said, when installing the board, I install in the rear first and then have to "snug" it by the latch and it then lays flat on top of the tire.

Plenty of room between your tire and the latch.
