Wondering what to get for a bigger spare now that I have bigger brakes.
Had s tire blow out and couldn't get the spare on.
 


You gotta move a good tire from the rear to where the bad tire was, and put the spare where the good tire was.
 
unless you have huge rear brakes, no you dont. you never put the spare on the drive wheel. ever. unless you have a awd gtp?
 


I have a spare tire that's fits over my gxp breaks and all. I don't want it if u do. The tire has never seen pavement before

I don't think the Impalas or Montes will work because they all use a 16x4 which will not clear the 13" rotors and GXP calipers. Need to use either of the 17x4s from the GXP Bonnies or GPs.

If you were running F-Body upgrade wheels, and stock rears you could use the 16x4 spares, but the GXP options require the 17s.
