I'm sure this has been answered before... but I couldn't find it! Can you fit a normal size wheel/tyre in the spare wheel cage? I'm fed up with the space saver... I'm on 14" wheels but I do have a towbar fitted. Anyone done it?

Thanks, does the jack still fit in? And does it sit lower, snd risk scraping on stuff at all?

you have to lower the cage a bit but it won't scrap.

Just stick the wheel in the boot. Keeps in better condition like that.

I can confirm this works with a 14" and with a towbar as well and you can fit the jack in
