Will full size spare fit?
 
I'm thinking about replacing the temp spare in the trunk with a full size 'real' spare but I don't know if one will fit in the wheel well the temp is resting in. My EX has 16" wheels but I can't get a regular steel wheel in that size, the smallest I can get is 15" so I'm thinking about getting a 15" steel wheel with 205/65-15 mounted on it. I think that should have the same OD as the stock 205/60-16. Also, correct me if I'm wrong but the bolt pattern is 5x114.3 right? Does anyone know if it will fit the spare wheel well? Thanks.

I've tried before. It wont fit and I did this with a 14 inch rim.

Yeah I just tried it to no avail as well. I'd googled it awhile back and somehow read two or three posts where people said it would fit. So I went to pick n pull, got a 14" rim and a 185 70 14 tire(same diameter as a 195 60 15), and sure enough it pushed up the spare tire cover by about an inch and a half. If you can live with that, I guess it's no biggie:D
