Default WTB: Track version compact spare

Well i finally ran over some large object and tore a gash through the bottom through half the sidewall. I upgraded my brakes so my spare doesn't fit anymore, need the track version. So, i'm looking for someone who took theirs out of their car and want to sell it. PM me a price, preferably local so i can pick it up. On a side note, thanks to the Z's that stopped by and asked if i needed any help. Even though i needed to wait for the tow, i appreciated you guys stopping by!

Sorry to hear that. Hope your Z is not too damaged. Is the track spare tire size different than the others? I had to use my spare once, before I upgraded my wheels, now I wondering if I can't use my spare tire anymore because of my wheel upgrade? The only reason I would go without a spare if I had run flat tires.

FYI, what I did that I found to be easier and cheaper...

I found a stock touring 18" wheel for cheap on ebay that was curb rashed... got a cheapie tire... kept that in the trunk.. then again I had no interior so It wasnt a problem to fit..

sometimes you find single Track model wheels, which is nicer because its lighter...

kr8z, you should be fine with your track spare. I upgraded my brakes, touring to brembo, so that's why my spare doesn't work. It sucks to be miles from a gas station in the middle of nowhere and get a flat.

Jason, thanks for the suggestion, but the stock rim doesn't fit under the cover does it? I still have my touring rims but want to put the compact one to save weight and still be able to put my golf clubs in the car . Anyways, if anyone has one, let me know. These things are pretty pricey at the dealership huh?
