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.  |

Just looking at the way the tire is on the rim I'd say the rim is wider than stock 914.
Also doesn't the rim sit face up to sit on the hold down correctly? |
