Has anyone tried to use a donut tire as the spare? I thought it would be nice to save trunk room, but don't know if it will give enough ground clearance. Tim 67.5 1600's /// datsun-roadsters@autox.te

I tried at the import junk yard once. I could find the right bolt pattern, but the wheel would not clear the front hub assembly. Would be handy to have a little more trunk space if you could find the

A while back someone suggested that the donut from a mid 80's Maxima would work. I have not tried it myself though. Sidney Raper 1964 1500 1967 SRL311 00060 1967 SRL311 00076 Jacksonville Florida htt

I don't know what list archive capabilities are like anymore, but if they are for the '95 to '97 timeframe, try searching on "space-saver spare". I asked this same question back then and got a couple

I tried to find one. Couldn't find one that fit over the front hub because it is so wide, but there are lots that fit on the back wheel. I have 2 in LA if anyone wants one. Paid $5 in a junkyard. The

What about the weight difference? Reducing the weight way back in the trunk could be good for the car's balance, couldn't it? or maybe again, not enough difference to be worthwhile... Gary McCormick

Putting the "Donut" on the rear on a front wheel drive car is fine, but if you want to reduce wear and tear on your spider gears on a rear wheel drive vehicle, do not put that tire on the rear of a r

I was in Las Vegas last Unless I am mistaken, the donuts are only rated for 45 or 50 mph. They also caution against reuse and excessive distance driving. It sounds like this guy did not pay heed to t

I have driven 200 miles on a sunday when a front tire gave up. I did not exceed 50 mph and the donut tire was still good to use. Michelin makes a skinny tire similar to Citroen 2CV that's used as spa

I tried the donut spare from my Mom's early 80's Maxima (810)(it has both badges). I think it fits front & rear as I remember. I found that it saved minimal space since the diameter is the same, and

The donuts in my Acura and Miata need 60 lbs of pressure. People often overlook their spare and the pressures go down causing the tire to overheat and explode. The 77/78 Zs came with an inflatable sp
