      It won't register for the space saver as it doesn't have a sensor in it.
      it will Only show as a dash

            Nice thread bud.

            i had a puncture/blow out on the motorway couple weeks ago... car handled it very well... thought something hit the bottom of the car and thought nothing of it until the sensors went off

            Anyway long story short, that foam filler stuff is shite. Dont recommend it atall so im in that boat for a space saver.

            Anything to look out for buying one? Whats the wheel size is should be going for? RBH ive same car as you bud, Atomics (but in 19's). Whats the stud offset size just so i get the right ones?

            Thanks in advance.

              As long as it's a 17" Sean.

              The offset won't really matter as it's only on the car a short time.
              I've had mine nearly 3 years and never used it yet......it's just peace of mind.

                      No difference at all.

                          Still something i am not getting here even though i got a spacesaver is why its smaller on outside dia (dont reply with its only to get you home)
                          cant save any space on outside dia as it goes in same wheel well as full size one (i get it saving on width)

                            It's supposed to be weight saving and not encroaching on boot space .and cheaper .
                            That's what a quick Google search is telling me .
                            Quite interesting is Google.
