Everyone should jump on this. Now a question. For those of us who have spacers will the spare work with it ? Good job bto
i was under the same impression that it won't work however we managed to find it at last.

noted your name and will let you know about the pricing asap.

Or, if you don't have that sized tire to compare, what is the vertical height of your spare when laid flat? Is the tire the highest point or is the rim when laid flat? I have installed studs in the hubs so don't need the longer bolts for rear mounting. How thick is the rear spacer needed? I'll appreciate your answer so I can see how much space I'm saving with your spare. Thanks.
have you checked the photos i added on the first page...?
