True. It beats the purpose of a spare if you can't stow it in the car IMHO!

Default Congrats! Nice score, and yes, Teddy gave you a great lead on that...
funny how it was mis-listed as an A8 wheel...those did NOT come on the A8. Good for you!

FYI -I've had no issues mounting the full spare with 255 40 17 rubber in the trunk's spare tire well. You just have to angle it just right.
