Have an STi V which is pleading for bigger brakes and bigger wheels over them!

Does the standard space saver tyre fit if you have 17" (or bigger) wheels and/or bigger brakes?

Cheers

Space savers do not fit over the prodrive big brake upgrade and expect its the same for others. Just put space saver on back and move the back wheel to front or get a 5th full size wheel.

The solution is to put the space saver onto the rear wheel, and then put the good wheel/tyre onto the fron if you get a puncture at the front.
