#1: 180 spacesaver wheel Author: imjeeves, Location: Glasgow / WellingPosted: Tue Dec 07, 2010 1:14 pm ---- Is there a spare wheel that fits a 180? Does the gti spacesaver fit?
#2: Re: 180 spacesaver wheel Author: Antix, Location: WorcesterPosted: Tue Dec 07, 2010 1:18 pm ---- The 180 doesn't have a spare wheel cradle, are you planning on fitting one?
The spacesaver from a GTi 'should' fit, it wouldn't be a 16" spacesaver on a GTi so should fit a 17" alloy-shod car

anything 15" or over will go over the brakes, if that helps
Getting 4 of them might be more difficult though!

It's true, they won't clear the caliper.
15" full size steelie it is!

#9: Re: 180 spacesaver wheel Author: imjeeves, Location: Glasgow / WellingPosted: Fri Jan 07, 2011 11:15 am ---- It snows a lot in Scotland where the rally will be. Plus the stellies will still be too wide! Hmm will need to try find a spacesaver that fits off another type of car
#10: Re: 180 spacesaver wheel Author: EuroPeugeot, Location: SW EnglandPosted: Fri Jan 07, 2011 1:56 pm ---- The 15" space saver DOES fit over the GTi 180 brakes. I did it myself about 6 months ago.
EDIT: I even had it over my 406 brembo calipers, with GTi 180 discs on.
