Hi m8,

Don't quote me on it but I'm pretty sure they don't. A mate of mine tried gettin a 14 under there an' it wouldn't go - but thats on a 1.1.
Ya could always just go for a 13" an' prey.

Or second thoughts - do a real tidy install in the boot an' make a feature of the wheel :grin:

Late Pete

Get a couple of cans of tyre weld.

by **dr_blackman** on Mon Oct 22, 2001 3:26 pm

tyre weld, is that the stuff that fix's punchers and pumps the tyre up again?

how much mate? :smile:

its £6.99 i think in halfords - i bought one the other day thinking adented rim was for a tyre going down - it was a nail in the tyre - i took the tyre weld back :lol:

Interesting, i'll have a look.

i want to get 15inch alloys on my fiesta so i will need something incase, if i can't fit the same size wheel in the old spare wheel thing!

cheers :smile:

I don`t carry a spare, no point because of the Wilwoods on the front, just make sure u don`t slice the sidewall open or you`re gonna be stranded :oooh:

i dont carry a spare either, my 16's wouldn't fit in the tray anyway. the main reason y i havent got one is the fact that i have no spare wheel tray.

took it off ready for my centre exit zorst but then changed my mind (i'll do it next year :wink:

rite after measuring accross my wheel through the centre and tyre (15's with 195/45/15 tyres)

and accross my old 13" steelie with 80 profile. theres about a quarter of an inch difference.

i know that your not suposed to mix wheels but surely in an emergancy thats good enough to get you home if you drive carefully!!!! :oooh:
