I'm doing a 5lug swap this weekend, i have everything I need except a 5lug spare tire. There’s a J30 at the junkyard, so i thought about getting the spare from it, the problem is i’m also installing Z32 brakes. So the question is, does the j30 spare clear Z calipers?

BTW. The brakes are the 30mm aluminum if that makes any difference. And the junkyard won’t let me try it out without buying it :mad: .

Thanks!!!

why not go with the 300zx spare? j30 and 300zx are both 5 lug the only differnence is the 300zx spare would have more clearance,

I'd love to use a Z32 spare, but i already went to 4 different junkyards and there were no 300zx's nor s14 se's.

So no one's ever tried this? :(

3rd gen rx7 spares are aluminum and extremly compact. I'm almost sure it would clear since they have large calipers as well
