Spare Tyre solutions

[5.0ALM]

Now that we have our orders officially in, and contracts signed, time to think about various accessories to get ready, specifically a spare tyre.

Here's one solution.

Is it safe to assume the front S650 Brembo calipers are the same as the Brembos fitted on the S550?
(And therefore clearance with this spare isn't an issue.)

I just bought a Nealey tire repair kit, electric car jack and electric impact driver, and electric air pump. Still cheaper than the spare and you don't have to change tires.

Once I pick up a 6 inch long, half inch pipe nipple that must have come off a plumbing truck. A patch kit wouldn't have done much good but I had a spare that I used. If I didn't have the spare it would have been wait for triple A.

Not sure, Stevie pointed out in my "whats the same" post that the disc diameters have increased 10mm Front (390 vs 380) and 25mm rear (355 vs 330)

OK, noted.
It's really the depth that is the issue.
I was going to get one of these before the sale ends, but might put the brakes on that idea until we have confirmation they fit!

The front discs are 2mm thicker and the rear are 3mm thicker.

Rear calipers are a different size as well.

But the front callipers are the same, 36mm.
