Talking Spare wheel.

Morning,

This is my first post, hope I can find some help.

I recently bought my very first car, a '95 Ford Fiesta. In fantastic condition. has 14" Alloys. (I love it to bits)

When I took the spare out to see it, it was a 13" steel wheel. So i bought my own 14" spare. The only problem is that it now, will no longer fit under the back of the car, its slightly too big. Does anyone know of any way to mod the back to take the larger wheel, as I plan to replace one of the alloys on the front (has some small damage) and use that as the spare.

Thanks very much for any and all advice.

Scott.

Re: Spare wheel.

if you get a spare wheel cradle from a later mk5 fiesta these are bigger to accomodate 15 inch wheels and should be a straight swap,you will have to get back end of car high though to remove the old cradle
