About to finally take delivery of a manual N Line. I too am not a fan of the space saver and have been considering my options. Given the limited scope to buy a used 18" SR wheel I was considering seeing if a standard 16" i30 rim would fit as it has pretty much the same rolling diameter and would be a far better short term option than the dinky space saver . Keen to learn peoples thoughts.

yep. That'd do me fine.

I'm not a fan of space savers. But i am happier with the extra 4-6 inches of cargo space with the floor in the lower position.

My thoughts exactly. How often do you get punctures these days as well.. :cool:

Agree, and so what if you can only do 80km/h. The world moves too fast as it is. So chill out about it, it's only gonna be a day or so of your whole entire life.

I have two issues with them.
1. The rolling diameter is significantly smaller on all the ones I have seen.
2. If you are on a long country trip, and the tyre you've damaged is unrepairable, you'd better hope it's a size available in the next town.

1. All the space savers i know of are basically size matched. You should see the size of some Mazda SUV ones, they're huge.
Just pulled a brand new Rav4 one out and sat it beside road wheel abd it was same size.
2. I knew someone would say this. On a long country trip i would need the extra space more than ever (specifically talking about my circumstance on this on)

Glad they fixed the size thing.
I saw some horrendous differences up till I stopped work in about 1012.
Ford Focus was one.
Another was my 2003 Subaru Impreza.

You look great for a man in his 70's but I reckon I would have noticed the smell of decomposition when we had lunch together last month if you were 1070 something... :snigger:
