Space saver wheel

[The Spider House]

Hi, I am thinking of getting a space saver wheel as I don’t trust the run flat/infkator kit system that is standard in UK.

My question is does anyone know of any space saver wheels that are compatible with the brembo brakes? I have a 2022 GT.

Are other ford space saver wheels compatible?

Obviously the intended use is just in case of any emergency or help with any tyre/wheel swaps and cleaning etc.

Ideally looking for known UK applications.

I went with the Automotive Authority spare wheel kit for cars with Brembo brakes.

I got it from Nemesis Motorsports (in the UK) shortly after I got my car

I think a lot of our US friends on here use it - that’s how I found out it existed!

I went with the AA spare as well.

AA is a great option or..... If you're a cheapskate like me and want a dirt cheap option that functions the same, the Hyundai Ioniq and similar Korean SUV 19" aluminum spare tires (there are different temporary tire sizes that match Mach 1 vs GT PPP1 diameters) fit perfectly once you slightly enlarge the hub register diameter with a piloted hole saw and purchase appropriate lug nuts. The smaller diameter Mach 1 spare size fits fine in the trunk well but the larger diameter GT PP1 tire size spare requires partially deflating the spare if you want it to nest into the tire well. Skinny front drag wheels with properly sized tires also work but it's very pricy.

How about this as an option ?

They even do an option with a Jack and bag

To clarify, here's all that's required for the DIY option to enlarge the Korean SUV spare tire options that will fit Brembo equipped Mustangs, one hole saw to pilot on the existing hole diameter and the cutting hole saw to match the mustang pilot diameter. Tolerancing is spot on plus the flanged lug nuts (Toyota) that are also required for the Korean wheels will insure proper piloting if you're really sloppy with your hole cutting. If you don't have access plentiful junk yards, there's always on-line resources.

Please keep me updated as this is looking promising

Will do, I suspect it is going to £30 or £40 if Rachel from Accounts has her way.

Yes, she is a real b!tch that one.

The wheel has arrived and Rachel has not charged me for the privilege.

And here it is installed with the jack and some disposable overalls. Hopefully I will never need it.
I have even managed to fit the air pump in there.
