Will this lay flat IF I've got a full size spare in the cargo area? I've got a base model '12 Soul and I'm purchasing an OEM wheel. Since there's no tire or even a cover that comes with the base model, I'm not sure what to visualize.

The spare tire should fit in the recessed section of your trunk space, if you don't have the flap cover that hids the recessed portion then this won't really work for you as this cover latches on to it and is amorphous otherwise.

On my gas grill it is a perfect fit on the body and covers the wheels to an inch or so above the ground. This is no problem to me since I don't move my grill around much and has never caught in the wheels yet.

I think that is my tire size and it was a loose fit. It worked ok for me as the spare is in my trailer's tack room. But, let me double check my tires tomorrow and verify. I will get back with you.

Yes the spare (donut) tire is mounted on the wheel. All you need to do for the tire is check the air pressure. I am very happy that I purchased this for our 2013 Hyundai Elantra GLS. This will give you peace of mind instead of that stupid tire mobility kit, which only works in limited situations. In addition, the tire mobility kit will damage your TPMS sensor and the canister costs $85.00 to replace. All in the name of saving the company $ and gas mileage ratings. South Shore Hyundai did a great job packaging the spare tire / wheel and tool kit.

I tried it on Suzuki Grand Vitara with a hard cover. On the GV, there is a back piece behind the spare tyre and a front piece that clamps onto the back piece. The back piece forms around the tyre, including curving forward slightly, maybe just an inch and a bit. Unfortunately, this prevented the rack from being mounted on the tyre. I suspect I would have to remove the front and back of the cover to try to make it fit. I did not want to remove the entire cover each time I wanted to put on the rack so I use it on the Jimny instead. I personally prefer the fit on the Jimny's 15" tyres since the rack rests on the rubber tyre rather than the rim. I tried it on Suzuki Grand Vitara with a hard cover.

No! Your wheel base is to short. When you go through dips in the road it will hit the road dragging. Now I am speaking of the 36in. wide unit, they also have a 24in wide unit that would be ok. Hope this helps.

i have a 2011 gmc sierra sle 4x2 and have this anty sway bar installed on the rear of my truck and have the spare tire on it and it has not blocked access to the spare tire, i already had a flat tire and had to use the spare tire and had no problem accessing it, maybe a little tight access but nothing i couldnt deal with.

Have you ever put on a bike tire? If you overlay the cover on the steering wheel from the top so the cover is on the wheel, then as you go around you should be able to "force" the bottom back portion over the steering wheel. I hope this helps

The cover goes to the ground. So if you only put the cable around the rim then yes.. But like mine I put the cable around the frame,wheel and post it does prevent the cover from hanging to the ground and covering the bike completely however there was enough cover for me to pull it down on the sides around the cable. But.. The rim is slightly exposed but I don't really care about that.

No, It will look like a stock HD. I have factory 20's with stock tires right now and bigger tires will look better, but it dosnt look bad with the stockers.

Hello,The wheel should bolt on nicely to your vehicle. I was showing there was a complete set left however, their online inventory isn't showing any available now. We would have to call the manufacturer tomorrow morning to double check availability of the wheel for you.Thanks,-Troy

Covers spare wheel and rims only. I really like this cover. BUT it pools water in the center during a down pour, so you'll need to prop center up with a poll or something.

Hi, Karen - Amazon sent me this question but I'm not sure why since I have a Toyota RAV4. I had to take the wheel cover off the spare tire to fit it on but one thing I can testify to is that it's very sturdy and I like that a lot. I use extra straps and bungie cords to be super sure the rack and my bike are secure and I don't know if that applies to you but I can definitely recommend it.

Yes it does but I won't be using it. I have a space saver wheel and OEM jack etc, as I don't use run flat tyres.

Should fit snugly in the bag. I'd go to a store that has bubble wrap and packing tape and wrap your wheels and frame with the bubble wrap. I also wrapped the inner bag with some moving fabric. I had enough space to take my floor pump. Might want to look at this first to get some great ideas. http://youtu.be/MPZU59NMewM

I've asked the manufacturer this question, and the answer I received was somewhat mixed. He has had folks with Gem Cars purchase these wheels/tires, then return them because they didn't fit correctly. He also mentioned that he has another vendor that uses these wheels/tires exclusively on Gem Cars. I'm sorry for sounding vague on this answer, but that's the answer I got. These are standard fitting golf cart wheels and tires, so if you can find a forum or message thread on Gem Cars, and ask other owners if they've had luck putting aftermarket wheels/tires on their carts, that's probably the route I would take. I hope that helps a little...Happy New Year!
