Finally installed it in car yesterday, fit like a glove. Actually a little too snug, had to lube up metal w WD40 to slide it in. But here she is!!! It's a beautiful wheel lol. I have to get the rubber for under bottom of spare soon, and do it right way. But good for now. I kept jack and handle in trunk, so no interference w wheel.

P.S. the cover fit, ok so-so... not 100% flush.. but good enough for me.. I guess taking some air outta tire would make it fit better, and I have compressor in trunk, so might do that.. just a head up guys. I have 32psi in tire.

32 PSI will be plenty safe to drive at 50mph to get you to a safe place to have your flat tire fixed. You just cannot be like the idiots you see on the road driving with a small donut spare at 75mph for a few thousand miles until they end up crashed somewhere due to their ignorance. The donut is only to be used in case of emergency and not for daily driving like so many do. Good Luck.

I know right. And the first time driving in the rain their toast. But, as the Old adage Goes, Here's Your Sign.

The 4 donuts are worth more that the whole car.

That irritates me, its available in europe and not USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTF!!!!!!!

I'd happily trade the availability of a spare wheel/tire for red tail lamps instead of white, an interior color other the black on black, optional wheel designs, strut tower brace..................................all things available to US buyers.

Pardon my ignorance as my '22 GT doesn't have the PP. I bought the spare tire kit from the dealer. In what way are the calipers so much bigger from a non-PP Mustang?

The main thing that limits clearance is the raised points, which stands up quite high -

Thanks. That helps it make sense. The calipers on my GT are sizable, and I wondered how much larger the Brembos are.
