Good evening / day from over in the states! For the HSV models such as the Monaro GTO in Australia that have the factory Premium brakes (343 mm fronts or larger), what size spacesaver do they have?

My 04 Pontiac GTO is going to get a new set of brakes soon (not sure which ones yet), but I want to be able to have a spacesaver spare as I travel with young children. I don't want run flats, have 18x8 and 18x9 road wheels already, etc.

I would think for the really big brakes like 362's and so on, that there must / may be an 18" or 19" spacesaver. Your help and insight would be appreciated. Take care. Dave

good luck in finding that you would need to call a hsv wrecker and find a wrecked GTS and see if they will give you the spare for a price

JHP over in Australia contacted me about getting one. Thanks for each one's input. Take care. Dave

Chech your space saver on the rear, we have wilwood ultralites 4 spots on the back, the space saver fits over the caliper, but wont pull up to the hub, so get a 10mm spacer, fit it with the spare. It means a bit of mucking around if you get a front flat, but it all fits in the boot.
