Good luck running different sized tyres on the driven axle. The

Good to know your cars are so old they don't have space savers.


No spare of any sort on one of them.

But it's perfectly possible to have a space saver with the same rolling
radius as a full sized wheel.


Of course it is, but then it wouldnt save as much space. Manufactures are
supplying space savers with a smaller radius.


Oh - sorry. Forgot it was you. Get someone to explain rolling radius to
you.


Maybe you ought to fact check space saver sizes rather than assuming that
they must be the same diameter.
