Default Spare size..

Will a full size 16/17' wheel fit in the spare wheel bay without pushing up the boot carpet ? The space saver no longer fits over the rear brakes !!

Cheers

Cheers,
I will either have to use a wheel spacer on the saver or have the boot carpet poking up !
Any one know where to get a single 5mm spacer.....

I have a full size 17" wheel as a spare and pushed the carpet up about 2".

Halfrauds do spacers
