Flat 4x4, yes a full size wheel will fit, NUT it sticks up into the boot by about 3-4inches, therefore boot board won't fit!

I suppose you could get a sheet of foam 3 inches thick to raise the boot floor up.

Just get a can of tyre fix stuff and lose the space saver. That way you can get to a tyre outlet to get it fixed without changing a wheel.

The only problem with the foam is that the tyre is a right-off once it's been filled with this stuff.. IIRC..

And if you rip your tire open you have no way of fixing the problem...
