| Anyone want a space saver? |
|
Hi all.
Having finally fitted the full size spare we've got a space saver surplus to requirements. If anyone would like it they can have it for a small donation to the site.

If you pay for it with a full size one, the official answer would be "a bit" Going, going...... Gone!

Hi.
It's 175 80 R19. I assumed it would be 18" as that what's fitted but there you go.

It's still the same overall diameter isn't it due to the higher tyre profile of the space saver.

Hi All,
A question in my naivety: I haven't seen a spacesaver tyre for a D3, but in my experience with other makes, they are an abomination! For example, they can only be used on the rear, the max. speed is reduced, etc. Finally, my question: What advantages do people see in a spacesaver tyre?
