Title: Spare Wheel
Post by k1ng_james on Jan 18^th, 2009, 6:04pm

I have some 17inch wheels on my 1996 scorpio 2.5td. Im wondering if a 17inch wheel would fit in the boot space provided for the spare wheel?

thank you in advance :)

Don't see any reason why it shouldn't......as long as tyre profile isn't too large :)

should fit if you use 45 profile tyres, it will stick up in the boot space as alloys are wider then the standard steel spare

I had a 12 spoke spare and it did not stick up very much..... Hardly noticeable with the boot floor covering back down .
