Hi Guys Im still relatively new here.

I just moved from some Runfarts to some brand new Continental sport contact 5, on my new GTC GT-CX Alloys thanks to Euro Division



Running Front: 225/40/18 Rear: 255/35/18.

Ive found with the change to real Tyres the steering to be less rigid, no more truck noise of the tyres and overall drive quality to be improved significantly.

I got them done at Tempe Tyres, good prices but terrible service.

But now I feel I need to get a Space Saver tyre in the even of a puncture. Some US guys have bought These:

Anyone sourced a space saver locally?


I will be posting up a build thread with some nicer picture soon

I would try a VE commodore spare, you may need a different tyre size as the VE is quite tall. But should be found fairly cheaply at wreckers i should think.

Pretty sure the commies run a different hub size that's smaller (you have to have the hub enlarged by boring it out IIRC)
