Yes, I know I could go out in the pouring rain, take off a wheel and offer it up myself. However I find in unfathomable that someone hasn't done this already and will know the answer in an instant without me having to get a jack out and get wet.
In short - will the wheel well take a full size 18" stock wheel or is it sized up simply for the space saver?
Petrol situation depending, next week I'm going for a mini tour round westcountry B Roads. Its too late for this trip but the thought has only just struck me that a simple puncture will properly stuff up my trip. I've only got the space saver spare, but whilst preferable to the stupid inflation kit with so much driving crammed into three days losing a day to sourcing a new tyre will be a real ball ache.
If I can, a like for like 5th wheel in the boot would only slow me up for the length of a wheel change... one on one off and then it's 'back to Banzai'. But while looking online for one the thought suddenly crossed my mind that maybe it won't actually fit. It seems a silly question but i've long since lost my trust that modern cost cutting measures could make the logical illogical, maybe they've shaved off the extra metal needed for a full sized wheel well 🤦♂️
Will it fit? 🤞
