  1. Has anybody got a spacesaver spare wheel for late bay camper van.
     
  2. They don’t do one. Some one on here has one made tho.

    They sort of do, they do a standard wheel with a space saver tyre collapses, would be a very old tyre and I don’t know if a new one would be available

  4. Would an Audi 112 PCD one work
     
  5. Sounds about right. I’m guessing that’s the only way you could hope to get a wheel in the rear cupboard on a Malaga/Oxford interior?

    Never thought about getting one in
    there, I think they are usually on the front, or perhaps under the cooker
     
  7. Thought that was what it was for being over the wheel well?

    Sounds about right but so is the cupboard on the Berlin and Campmobile deluxe and there's no chance of getting the spare in there!
    I'm sure @Clive Neilands Helsinki has the spare in a box on the front. Original Westfalia with a modified front bumper?
    That may be an option if you can find one...
     
  9. They’re an acquired taste but I think the Helsinki wheel boxes look great! Saying that I thought the colour coded ones on Danbury’s were nice too. That is until they went watercooled & put colanders on the front... :rolleyes:

    Agreed. To me they look right. A wheel bolted to the front panel looks wrong imho.

    One thing the T25 does better, underslung at the front with a drop down tray
     
  12. Was it birdie that had itbehind or next to passenger seat @Flakey ?
     
  13. Steady on pal... TLB will be more divided than Brexit camps if you start on us wheel-up-fronters..... :mad:
     
  14. In fact I'm so incensed by the attitude of you "hiding your spares away in shame" that as at Agincourt, I hold aloft my spare in a circular salute and blow a raspberry Monty Python style at you all. I proudly display my ring and encourage all others to do the same!!!!

    so there.

    Take one of these
    :eek:
    This'll put a works worm in a can of spanners:)
    I didn't take a spare wheel ever
    Having different profile tyres I didn't see the point
