space saver spare wheel for 182

[STEVE182CUP]

does anyone know if you can buy a space saver spare wheel for a 182 as i dont really want to carry a full size wheel,if so do you know where i can buy one from and how much they are.thanks

 

[Jay]

Shouldn't mind one of these also.... hmmm

 

[Da]

surely any 16" space saver with the correct stud pattern will do? (4x100 iirc?)

as daz said

 

[STEVE182CUP]

cheers guys but you say any 16"space saver wheel, but where can you buy one from.......

I've been looking into a vauxhall 205/55/14 steelie instead of my alloy. I just need to clarify that it will fit over the caliper.

 

[HBB]

I read on another thread that spacesavers dont fit over the caliper. Full sized or nothing I think.

 

[STEVE182CUP]

i wonder if renault do one,might ring them tomorrow.....

Have none and get some foam!
Much lighter!

 

[Mondial172]

Dangerious to carry a wheel that isn't bolted down isn't it?

 

[STEVE182CUP]

Got the foam but not much good if your 200 miles from home

 

[Da]

or in the event of a blow-out

 

[STEVE182CUP]

Scary^^^^^^^^^^^

I have had a blow out the foam was no use at all. Lucky i was near home and my dad took me for a tyre. So i now i carry a spare alloy, not what you want to here but hey

I posted a thread on this a while back. Concensus was to try a get a replacement alloy. been looking on Ebay but not found any yet. I'm after the cup anthracite ones. Would be a good group buy

 

[STEVE182CUP]

I would also be interested in a group buy,anyone else.....

 

[Ian_182]

Yeh its ok having a puncture,but as has been said a blow out is a whole different matter....
Ive got 3yrs AA with mine but its a waste calling them out for a blow out

I've been asking the same thing for donkeys too as I don't feel comfortable with just foam especially on motorway journeys. There must be a space saver wheel that will fit over the calipers somewhere - even if you have to swap the front and back wheels?!?!?
