Hi everyone (sorry for all the questions)
Can anyone tell me if a 16inch wheel will fit in the tyre well in the boot? I want to get a full sized spare for my WT Fiesta Zetec, however I want it to fit and the cover of the boot to sit flat....properly on top. I do realise I can buy a spacer from ford but they are $300. A spare cheap tyre is a fraction of that.

i have a full size spare fits fine but its a 185/55r15, the stock hold down bolt is too short but it doesn't move around anyway, i think a 195 tyre would still be ok but a 205 might be pushing it, as for diametre there is plenty of room around my spare to fit a taller tyre.

I took a full size rim off mine (WT zetec) and tried to fit it in the spare tyre area. it fits.. just... but it does lift the boot floor up a bit.

Anyone got an idea of what size bolt (length and diameter) fits? Just trying to avoid having to buy a few before I get the right one...
