Hi there everyone just asking a question about the spare wheel when I ordered the manager said they had two 1.6 TDI's aqua blue twin doors s type down south at the docks waiting both basic spec one with full size spare wheel and one without so opted to get the one with but seen a few people say that it's not actually a full size steel wheel I'm getting 16" alloys so is it a 16" steel wheel

Yes. I have just that, Stuart

16" steel wheel with a tyre width of 205

16" steel wheel with a tyre width of 205

so is the width of the steel wheel different from the width of the alloy it take that it is and if so why is is it called a full size spare wheel

Because its not a space saver wheel.

I think the Skoda spare is a great compromise, it doesn't intrude too heavily on the boot space with a full 225 wheel and it isn't a stupid unicycle wheel that a lot of other manufacturers tend to use. Also, it isn't a rotten can of gunk and a compressor.

The main thing is that its not an undersized wheel and tyre in a lot of skodas.

My Superb Greenline SE runs a 205/55 16 tyre as standard which is the same as the spare i have.

Its a full size spare in so much as it has the same rolling diameter as the 225/18 tyre/wheel
