Sorry if this was asked before. I just picked up my 13 and was curious what you brembo guys do for a spare? I was thinking of getting a GT spare and god for bid i get a flat in the front i can just move the rear wheel to the front and put the spare on the back? Pretty sure a GT spare would clear the back? Thank you all for the help ahead of time.

3 main options.

1. What you said.

2. Get a wheel that clears the front calipers, so you can use it either front or rear.

3. Do nothing, use your factory slime kit and roadside assistance.

I chose 2. I bought a 07-09 18" GT500 rim off Craigslist for $50, and a used 255/45/18 tire. It fits in the spare tire well, but it raises the trunk floor 2". You'll barely notice. You will carry around another 50lbs of weight, but it's worth the piece of mind for me. YMMV.

If you put the spare on the rear, wouldn't it have to be exactly the same size as the other side to not cause issues with the diff???

I'm not sure

This is what I did and am happy with the result. No swapping tires front to rear to clear the Brembo brakes and the tire is so close to the diameter of your factory tires there is no worry about damaging the clutches in your limited slip getting somewhere to get the flat fixed. You don't want to slime your tire because that will mess up the tire pressure sensor. New sensor + labor cost to the dealer to get it set up for your car = > $100
