S197 add a spare tire

Ok, I searched and couldn't find the old thread. I have a brembo car and want to add the 18" spare. I'm taking some trips this summer and want some security. I think it was laserred said there was a spacer I could use to use it on the front tires. Anyone know which spacer it is?

I wasn't sure, but I think a 1" spacer would make it work. Or you can get this...

That's the same spare that doesn't fit over the Brembos...

Ok so that one won't fit over Brembos, I think this is the best option if you can find one...

I have a full size 18" spare tire which doesn't need any spacer. It covers my Brembo brake fine.

Does the floor lay flat over it? What rim is that?

the floor has about 1/2 to 1" hump. Barely noticeable.
Sorry, I don't know what brand the rim is. I checked for you but I didn't see any name on it. The dealer provided as part of my new car purchase agreement with them. I remember they were saying there are only two brands of 18" wheels that clear the Brembo calipers.
