Spare Wheel?

Per Ardua · 28th January 2008, 07:38

A good friend of mine has been asked by his father-in-law if he can find a spare wheel + toolkit for his 53 plate 75 Connie SE Touring (CDTi auto - and a very, very fine example too). He currently has a can of tyre-weld and a compressor in the boot but would be far happier with a proper spare (space-saver or otherwise) complete with jack, brace etc.

Can anyone suggest a good place to start looking? (a Rover Breaker sounds like a good plan to me) Is this the sort of thing SMC carries in stock?

A couple of spacesavers are on e-bay ATM but no complete wheel/tool sets.
Les only has a spacesaver wheel with no tyre listed but he may have something tucked away on his shelves.

I got my spacesaver and toolkit from members here. There're usually lots of unused spacesavers kicking about, as people like to upgrade to full sized spares.

I got my tool kit from ebay and it fits nicely into my full size spare (18") with the exception the jack handle which fits nicely down the back edge of the wheel, wrapped in an old towel.

I've got a couple of 15" Crowns (no tyres) if anyone wants to fetch one........

We have new space savers without tyres and a tool kit, tell you what you buy the tool kit and I'll throw in the space saver free!
