The car didn’t come with a spare tire, but did come with four “spare” rims and tires, the Empi wheels shown in the listing pictures. I had been carrying one of those wheels in the front trunk, but had to lay it down horizontally on top of the gas tank. The tires that were mounted on the Empi wheels were quite a bit wider than the stock size and it wouldn’t stand up in the spare tire well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I ordered a new tire off of Ebay (Kenda Komet Plus Kr23 – 165\/55r15) in the narrower stock size. That tire wouldn’t fit in there either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
