Default Will a full size spare fit in the trunk?

Might be a repost, but I was curious if a full size spare (17'' or 18'') would fit in place of the spare wheel in the trunk without fitment issues?

Mine didn't in a ZR. It's far too wide. I imagine the same for the Coupes

By wide you mean tire width? Or overall diameter? I figure a 17'' set should fit okay, but I have no means of checking for myself, since I don't have a spare 17'' tire laying around.

how would a full size spare benefit anyway? if you have a staggered set up it would make no sense at all. now if you are running the same size wheel/tire all the way around, then yeah i could see that but a full size would not fit anyway.

It will not fit where the stock spare tire is.

Arnold, come on~ You want to go fast, you gotta drop the weight. Which means all tools, and the spare come out =)

<= Also hooked on the ARC stuff.... altho I have some other stuff that is more JDM than ARC =X
