You'll just need to do what I did in the same situation and get a spacer. Contact AA and they'll sell it separately.Luckily I never sold the spare, as I recently acquired a 19" GT350....hope it fits..

It's the only real option out there at the moment for PP/GT350 brakes.How has this option worked out for everyone? I recently bought a PP1 car and need to get something. I'd hate to get stranded with a something worse than a puncture.
As has been posted many times before, the Torsen can withstand pretty significant differences in size between tires when it comes to a temporary spare.My only complaint about the AA spare is that it is larger than the 275 tire on a PP1 and really big when compared to my PP2 305/30R19! I wish a spare was available for PP2 cars. AA did say they can get a 135 temporary spare tire on their rim to get a closer diameter to the PP2 tire.
OK but why put it under stress? All you need is to put a 135/70R19 tire and you are good to go for a PP2. It is then only 0.4" in diameter different. the tire they are selling is a 155/70 which would have a diameter that is 1.3" greater than stock. There is no need for a 155. Of course, the 135/70 tire is a temporary spare with very limited miles. I contacted Automotive Authority and they said they could get us a 135/70 instead of the 155/70.As has been posted many times before, the Torsen can withstand pretty significant differences in size between tires when it comes to a temporary spare.
Because you want it to fit in the spare tire well. My AA spare is very snug as it is, full-sized tires don't fit without being deflated.OK but why put it under stress?

My mistake, I thought it was going the other way.135/70R19 would be close to a PP2 tire which is smaller than a PP1 or regular GT tire by 1/2” and might fit the wheel well at 26.4” dia.
It's available hereIs this available through you guys still?
