Thumbs up Anyone got an 18" spare wheel?

Anyone got an 18" spare wheel I could borrow from 25-30th January.

Just incase I get a puncture in Europe, don't really fancy putting the space saver on!

Sorry I don't have one to lend (I've only got 16" Forester wheels), but it might be worth looking at 17" wheels as well.

If you need 18"s to clear your front brakes, and get a front blow out, just swap a rear one to the front and use the 17" on the rear.

What size tyres have you got on your 18" wheels?

It's just a case of matching the rolling circumferences.

Son Chris has an 18" OZ with 225/40 P-zero Nero going spare if you're interested. Can bring it to either the Halfway or the DickT meet? Let me know if it suits.

I would of been well up for this but I leave on the 18th.
It's a real shame cos it looks like everything is picking up again for the summer and there are some great events coming up!
