Spare tire + 13" Baer?
Saturday, January 05, 2008 4:32 PM
Okay I know similar questions have been asked and I have searched but all I really found were either full size spares that work with the 12" Wilwoods, people trying to fit 16's around the 13" brakes or people flaming for asking dumb questions without searching.

So I was wondering what size tire will fit well in the wheel well (diameter wise not width). I know that the top of the tire will sit higher than the wheel well cover and I have plans to raise the floor after dynamating the trunk and laying wires, I just want a spare tire that will fit over my brakes in case anything ever happens. Part of what is confusing me is that my stock tires were 195/70R14 and the spare that is in there right now is 115/50D14. I don't know if it matters for the spare but I am currently running 18X7.5 rims with 215/40ZR18 and I am planning on the spare rim being a 17" rim. Any help will be greatly appreciated and thank you in advance.

rumor has it that an Audi TT 18" spare will work.

I haven't been able to get my mitts on one to test it.
