View Full Version : Whats the lightest wheel/tyre combo for use as a spare?
I would presume a willy wheel?
:lol:
Naaa silly light, something I could wear as an earing comfortably :wink:
lol
a space saver then??
stolen from another model of car.....
Could be! they're all steelies though aint they? would have thought some form of alloy would be lighter

aye but space savers are usually only 3/4 inches wide, rather than the 6.5/7 of an alloy.
:wink:
get the scales out, or ditch the spare all together.
:lol:
a can of tyre weld or an AA subscription?

2 cans and RAC!
Don't feel 100% safe though sometimes.. don't like the thought of a real emergency coming into play and I'm sat there waiting for mr rac man because I wouldn't run a spare...
never ran a spare on my valver for years, just a can of tyre weld.......................luckily it was never needed :lol:
I never run a spare .....Drive on the rim if i really have too lol
Spacer savers will weigh as much as a willy wheel .....Which is more pimp hmmmm? :wink:

I thought space savers (the ones that look like vespa wheels) typically weigh less than 5 kg (that's with tyres on). I was looking for one for wife's car sometime ago, but the shipping was a killer.
aye..couple tins o tyre weld ;)
dont liek tyre weld, means you cant repair the tyre once it comes off!
Never had a spare wheel...wouldn't fit under witht the big box i had so i had a can of that tyre weld stuff.
My Elise don't have a spare (where would it go :lol: ) so as std they come with a can of tire weld mounted on a bracket under the bonnet ;)
