designo can you please post spare wheel and tire size. Thank you

 

wonder if this one will clear the rear brakes.

It isn't used in any market for an F car of any kind. Everything else RC and GS, but not the Fs.

Correct part number is 42611-30G10. This one is 42611-30F40, and it is ridiculously cheap compared to the one for the RC F and GS F in other markets.

 

but will it work? Bolt pattern and offset match, just that its 18 and not 19...

kinda tempted to buy it

 

I hear you. It's really cheap relatively speaking, and if it works, super bonus, but I suspect it won't clear the calipers. Maybe the rear, but not the front.

 

Well if it clears the rear i'll be happy. Yeah it'll suck to swap tires all over the place, but at least I wont be stranded for hours waiting for the tow truck. Yes I realize a 20" and a 19" in the front will absolutely suck but who cares, I'll be driving to the tire shop instead of being stranded for hours waiting for the tow truck.

Screw it, gonna pull the plug.

 

Let us know how it works out.

 

Here are some pictures of the GCC spec OEM GSF spare tire. You are better off without it!

Minutes 9-10 of the video below

 

That looks like the full size spare "Guam" tire (from that Guam/Hawaii thread). This particular one I'm looking at is a donut/space saver spare that supposedly came out of an RC with factory 18s.

 

How you will fit it in the GSF trunk? Just throw it in there or will you put it under the carpet?

 

Put it under the carpet. I'd have to fab some sort of base to keep it from hitting the TVD, so I'd lose the plastic cover thats currently there. Was thinking of thin carpeted plywood.

 

I'm trying to figure out the same thing. Im running a donut spare with a spacer that clears the front brake calipers. I need to find a solution to either relocating the TVD or building something over it to protect it so i can get the donut in its proper space.

 

 

Thats where mine is for now until I can figure out how to get it underneath the carpet like the regular GS' do.
