What do you guys do with the skinny stock 17" spare after you've installed 18" or larger wheels?
How about those Stangs that come with factory 18" rims? Is the spare 18" too? If yes, can it be ordered somewhere? I'm installing the 18" black Bullitts this week and I'd rather have a spare that's the same size as the other wheels.
Thanks for any input!

 

It shouldn't matter Louie, my new 20 inch wheels & tyres are the identical diameter to my old 17 inch wheels & tyres. It is only a get you home spare, so no problem to replace 18s or 20s rather than 17s

it's still a 17" for the GT's so it can clear the front brakes. I use 2 of them for skinnies at the local 1/8th mile....

 

Hey Speeddmn,

Do you have any pics of the "skinny" setup and what did you use for tires? Did you see a ET reduction?

Thanks

My GT came with 18" from the factory. The spare is still 17". Same diameter as was said above.

 

my friend used the same thing, two spares in the front and he got .2 faster i think, the spares are way lighter than the stock or some aftermarket

 

+1....

 

I would like to know what size tire you are placing on the wheels and hope your not still running on the actual spare tires? I would think somthing along the lines of a 165/70/17 might work?
