Spare Tires Question

This will fit my (now parents) mk6 fiesta that has 15" alloys on, as a spare wont it? the tire sidewall will be bigger on the spare so that it runs the same height as a 15" wheel yes?

If I get this then I can steal the full size 15" spare from the mk6 thats currently in it for my new fez. Again, the 15" spare will be fine with the 17" rims wont it because of the profile of the tires

Thanks,

Jay

    Both my Mk 6 and Mk6.5 Zetec's had 14 inch steel spare's despite having 15 inch alloy's, think the tyre size was the same as that one, 175/65r14

    Not sure what the tyre size would be to make the 15 inch rim match up to a 17 inch rim with the height of the side wall to keep it the same :unsure:
