Tire size in boot

Postby Giselle » Sun Nov 10, 2013 5:11 pm

Hi,
I was wondering if the Eunos can fit a 185/60/14 sava tyre in the boot?

Or can it only fit a half size tire?

Thanks in advance

kinda depends what you want to sacrifice? if you want zero boot space you can have a 14" stockie with "full" sized tyre.
But it doesn't really make sense, the spacesaver is fine for getting you out of trouble. Just make sure it actually holds air!

I was in an awkward situation the other day, with a flat tyre, put the spare wheel on, which also went flat as soon as the weight of the car was dropped on it :lol: :roll:

Sell space saver, make $15, drop 9kg, don't have to carry jack or handle and save another 1.5kg - win.
