I just learned something the hard way. I had a blow out in my car this morning. It sounded like a gun shot. My tire probably has 3/4 tread on it too. There is a nail in it. I'm not sure if that is why. I find it hard to believe it is the reason for it. The outside tire separated from the casing. The inside did not. I believe it is from driving on it flat for a mile though. I'm not sure what caused it.
Anyway my point of this post is my spare tire would not fit either the front or the back. The rim hit the calipers. My 16" salad shooter fit the rear fine. I did not try the front. If you converted your brakes, your spare may not fit. I'm going to carry a salad shooter until I can find a 17" spare.
