I don't think any spacesaver will fit over non-standard brakes. You might have to make do with a can of tyre goo.

The NB space saver is larger than the NA space saver, but I'm not sure if the NB8B space saver is larger than the NB8A space saver given the increase from 15" to 16" rims on the later model. However, you might find the NB8A space saver is sufficiently large enough for your situation.
