Spare tire and wheel

[FastFox]

Looking at a 2009 GT500. I don't like the idea of running with no spare and only the air pump. I know a plug is OK and you can air it up and go. But what it is not a plugable flat ? I don't mind a wheel/tire combo being a little tall for the well in the trunk. Any wheel short of another high dollar Shelby wheel work ?

get a spare from a 05-11 mustang

will it clear the bigger brakes ?

My 13' came with a 185/55/18 spare in the trunk, but seeing as those don't come with the Brembo cars, I'm betting they won't clear the front brakes.

A friend of mine carries around an extra stock wheel/tire in the trunk of his Shelby, but it doesn't fit the well worth a shit either. He lives way out in the county though, so it makes sense.

If you aren't driving long distances and live in the city I'd probably just wing it.

I thought about just getting a spare wheel, maybe even with some curb rash. Then get an upholstery guy make a slip cover somewhat like the Lincolns used. I really don't need the trunk space, and I would feel a lot better with a real wheel back there. The well under the spare could be used for storage.

I thought there was a spare out there that cleared the brembo '11+ cars?
