25951, GSX caliper fit spare tire? Posted by SilverRS, Dec-18-04 02:23 AM
I know the question has been asked about what size rim. I was wondering if I do this upgrade will I still be able to put on my spare tire on just incase something happens.

i want you to think of what you already know about the tire sizes they will fit, look at your spare tire and then realize why this question shouldn't have been asked. IMO

Concidering that the spare tire is 15" and has a different shape than the 14" wheels. Thanks for being a such a great help. I found out the spare tire size for GSX is T125/90D16 and the others came with T125/70D15. So the answer is no. Now that being said does anyone have a GSX spare tire or know where to get one?

i know it's a little more work, but if you had a flat in your front you could just rotate your back tire to the front and then use the spare for the rear.

Yea I was thinking that, I think that I will get the GSX brakes. It is just a little more work if I get a flat in the front.

Yeah the most important tires are the front...if a rear pops its not as dangerous as a front tire...particularly on a FWD car

The manual specifies installing the spare tyre in the rear of an all wheel drive. I think that you will be fine, so long as you follow that advice.
