All this talk of rim sizes reminded my of something. If you do both the SVT rear disc and front disc swap, your OEM space saver spare is useless. It will no longer fit over the brakes. There are two options as I see it: the SVT spare, or a full size 16" spare.

I was lucky and found an SVT spare at Cookstown Auto.

BTW, this is another downside of the SSBC rear disc conversion kit. It needs 17" rims minimum, not even the SVT spare will work. POS all the way...
