Given our Ford Sierra running gear, is there any chance something like a Ford Focus space save spare would fit our cars?

I do not have a spare and the TVR space saver spares are rare-ish and expensive when they do come up for sale.

What are the basic stud/hub/offset values required?

Thanks phillpot.

The last one I was watching one the bay went for more than I expected, a lot more than I expected...


Hopefully the value of our cars are following suit :-)

If I can find a TVR Wolfrace item then happy days, otherwise I was thinking 15" Focus space saver, but I'll get some measurements now you've kindly given me them.

Focus space saver tyre size is T125/80/R15 95M.... which tends to make me think a slightly larger tyre overall?

I've roughly calculated that the increase in wheel diameter is 25mm going from a 125/70/15 to a 125/80/15. Do we think it would still fit in the boot?

Ha, could put one on both fronts and go for the Lotus Elise look!
