Since the 991.2 Rear Seat Delete Thread is closed. I would like to answer the question asked there regarding the possibility of fitting a road wheel with a flat tire in the rear after rear seat removal. As shown here, even with the rear seats in place, it fits.

Obviously much easier with the rear seats removed.

As to tie down of the removed road wheel, certainly something can be arranged, but the probability of a road flat followed by a serious crash while driving to a tire repair/replacement facility seems remote enough to me that I would not seriously be concerned.

First time I have ever seen a thread closed here. Wonder why.

Yeah, that thread went real south near the end. First time seeing anything getting locked. Lol.

Doesn't Suncoast parts sell a some spare tire kit that you can put on one of your back seats. I have seen it on their page.

FYI. I did not follow that thread much, but the starting author of a thread has the option to close a thread at any time (thread tools, close thread, perform action). But only the original author. Mods can lock/close/and edit any thread. Looks like the guy that started that thread closed it after a few pages. Hope this helps explain it a little.

Don't know for sure, but that thread was likely closed because the OP was not conducting himself like an adult.

Didn't realize you could fit a spare in the rear seats. The guy that described in the other thread is very handy.

Thanks, Drifting. I have some more projects in the works.

And I am pretty sure we can get both a front and rear tire inside the car, lying flat--have to try it to be sure. Then we can go on safari!
