GR86 GR86 Space saver?

[Dal3D]

When I saw my car briefly at the dealers, I noticed the boot has a wheel well and what looked like space for at least a space saver wheel.

As we're off to Le Mans next year, I'd rather take a working wheel (albeit a bit of a naff one) in the boot than rely on the puncture goo. As well as have it in the boot for (dirty but without the dogs) weekends away etc.

Does anyone who is more familiar then me with Toyota space savers know which one to go for?

(The O/H is French so I've no doubt I can get another tyre if need be, but don't want to have to rely on that if you know what I mean.)

I've got one I bought for my GT86. I think its from an Impreza WRX. I kept it so I could put it in the GR86. Unfortunately, the new car didn't come with a scissor jack though, so a bit pointless....

Edit: some discussion here which might help. Anything which fitted the GT86 should fit the GR... https://www.gt86.org.uk/forums/forums/topic/1489-space-saver-wheel/

I bought a GT86 spare on eBay. Will keep scissor jack from old car

Does it definitely fit the GR? Is it the same diameter including the tyre? You don't want different wheel sizes on the same axle.

It looks right. Haven't tried putting it on yet

Picked up a space saver at last including jack etc. The size is pretty much spot on for the 18s so should be fine.

I am still searching for one.

Is this OEM or third party?

After comparing lots of different section tyres, diameters and offsets, I found the best one was from a 2007ish Legacy so it's Subaru OEM.

Thanks.
I was just looking for GT86 spare wheels. Looks like I need to expand my search.

I've still got the spacesaver I had for my gt86 but need a jack to go with it.

I was too, but they were twice the price for the same thing

Don't have to use different wheel nuts presumably?

 

[Dal3D]

Steel and alloy do really need different profile nuts yes. A few miles to the tyre repair shop should be ok.

But yes, I'll get some Steelie compatible nuts soon

 

[Dal3D]

So fitted the space saver today and it seems the standard nuts will be OK on the steelie I got - if only for an emergency, which is the point I guess.

So 55 offset is the winner?

And where did you get yours from?

 

[Dal3D]

Got it from the bay of E.

Does anyone know if the 16" space saver spare of the old BRZ/ GT86 will fit/ clear the front brakes? Thanks David

 

[ZN8]

The brakes are the same as the old car so you should be fine

 

[GR86DG1987]

Perfect, thank you

 

[Gari]

Anyone seen these? I like the idea of having a new kit with a big drive coming up soon...
