After my fifth flat tyre in 6 weeks a few days ago, I am looking for an answer to the spare wheel problem. I have decided that I will carry a second spare when I head off into the scrub. I have alloys on my D2 and someone suggested that a spare steel rim and tyre from a series 1 would be cheaper to buy and lighter to carry. Anyone know if they will fit the S2? (second hand S2 alloy and tyre quoted at $450!!!! if you can find one!)
The last one went flat in a sandy spot with a nail through the tread, and I had to drive the car another 80-90 mtrs to get to a spot where the jack would sit level and ended up slicing the sidewall. This meant that I had to order a new tyre. I will be kissing $200 goodbye tomorrow morning when one arrives on the truck.
