Why not just get them all and sell the ones you don't need on ebay?

Hey froggy, does a full size spare really fit in there, I never looked but, I would think it might be a bit big. My car now has a full size spare.  |

My bmw lists it has a full size spare but since the car has optional 19s the spare is only 18" so its just as bad as just having a donut. I dont think a full size spare will fit in the auroras spot but I could be wrong.

Sorry hollywooddippa the car was in a accident and the front end is totalled, he has the car in a 20 acer field just setting, its a blue aurora with blue interior but his son drives an aurora and if he needs a part he just stills it off there , but the front end is pretty banged up and i dont think the Headlights are intact. Ill ask, but im pretty sure by the one pic he sent me that the headlights are cracked  Sorry |

Thanks for looking. Both of my adjusters are broke (vert and hori). The inside of the light is dark also. I think the previous owner had a blown bulb and it messed up the inside.

Hey froggy, you should see if he has the AC/Heat/DIC display unit, get it and you can mess with it and change the yellow LED's to blue LED's.

Tell that guy to join up here and put a post in "ACNA Marketplace"! He'll probably sell some parts to people who really need 'em. $100 for a stock rim is crazy, apparently there wasn't that much demand for them when I sold mine on eBay a couple years ago. IIRC they all sold for $25-30 each with $20 for shipping. |

The last time I did that project, it took me roughly about 4 hours. It's just the disassemble that takes long.

I need some info about the spare tire please, is it a 15" or 16" because all I can find is a 15" and my car has a (flat) 16" in the trunk when I bought it.

The donut spare is a 15" according to my door tag. Check your tag, the size should be listed along with "SPA" for spare. T135/70R15

it will fit but just barely barely. your tire cover probably wont sit back down flush but its gonna be very close. i just measured with a tape so its not exact science but i got roughly 7 1/2 inches deep for the tire well and 7 1/2 inches wide on my tires but thats not counting the funky wheel spokes that stick out a bit. if it were me i'd do it anyway oh i didnt measure the diameter oops  better double check that! i know the depth is that close , not sure the other way |

Okay, mine is 16" and I can't find one anywhere. If anyone knows of a 16" spare please let me know. What I have had to do is keep a complete full sized wheel and tire in the truck for now because that's better than nothing but it takes up almost the whole truck.

Have you tried a dealer? I really hope that the factory spare hasn't been discontinued for 2nd gen cars. I think it's a 125/75-16 or thereabouts.

I felt bad for the guy I bought them from. |
