Hi all I am looking for a spacesaver spare wheel and tyre and jack suitable for my 2003 2.5. It has Alpinas on it at the moment which I think are 17's I am not sure what size spacesaver I will need, if anyone can help either with one to buy or advice it would be most welcome.
Thanks
Steve

Depends what model you have. viewtopic.php?f=49&t=107556

What year is your car?

Just saw you have a 2.5 so you’ll be okay with a 16” space saver. Easier to source those ones as well

If it's of any interest I have a Draper scissor jack free to a good home if you want it; would only cost you postage. It's one of these: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Draper-53093-1 ... 389&sr=8-2

I originally bought it to carry as an emergency type thing, but I've never used it and I don't like it rattling around in the boot, so it's yours if you want it.

That reminds me, I really need to post an advert for my 17" unused spacesaver with jack and wheelbrace!

I’d be interested in those Mr Tidy if they go into the boot of my E86

OK, so here goes - but to be fair someone sent me a PM earlier so he has 1st dibs on it.

It will definitely fit in the boot of an E86 though.

Photos are here:-

I paid £100 a couple of years ago, but realise I might have got carried away!

But it needs to go.

17" wheels are expensive so I'd expect to pay around £75+
If you're doing as a set, then £100 sounds about fair

Well MR Tidy. If the first refusal says know I'll say yes. Thanks buddy.

Quick update then, and it is the full set of wheel, jack, wheelbrace and the plywood support.

I got a PM last night around 10.30 and replied at 11.20, but my reply hasn't been read yet. How long should I wait to be fair to the guy who PM'd me?

24 hours would be quite fair

I don't want to take your post off track - but just remember that you will have to put the punctured full sized wheel in the boot after you've changed it!

That’s what a passenger is for! They can hold it in their lap... Especially when you’re dressed up for a night out!
