Got a flat tyre this morning

[FlameR]

Things are going from bad to worse. My exhaust is hanging off, and got a flat tyre on the motorway this morning!! I managed to make it to work without actually realising haha. I have 17's so I didn't notice due to the car shaking due to the ridiculous noise from the exhaust.

Anyway, I was wondering what size the standard 172 alloy spare wheel is? Would it be ok to leave that on for a week or 2??

Tbh not ideal. The rolling radius is a little smaller.

If you can, try and get it changed ASAP.

See it as a good chance to get your handling back and buy a set of 15s!

Just taken to a local garage across from work. I'm not sure they will have the tyres for my wheels though, I think they just have bogger ones, not low profile.

I was gonna get some 16s in a few weeks anyway!! With slightly higher profile tyres
