honeycut_mazda5 Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago Upon receiving the car, I desire to have a temporary spare wheel prepared for installation. I will not be acquiring the authentic Mazda kit due to its cost exceeding £600, but I require information on its compatibility with a Bose subwoofer and whether padding is necessary between the subwoofer and the spare wheel.

nimbuye5 Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago I assert that the specification 135/80/17 - 103M is compatible with vehicles equipped with 18" standard wheels, including a 114.3mm pitch circle diameter and a hub diameter of 67.1mm.

QuirkyPixel Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago If you possess 18" wheels, an 18" steel space saver wheel is required to accommodate the subwoofer. An extended bolt is provided, which passes through the subwoofer and wheel, securing into the boot floor where a welded nut is present. Disconnect the subwoofer lead, remove the subwoofer, and position the wheel accordingly. Subsequently, place the subwoofer within the wheel and fasten the assembly using the extended bolt. The lead will trail over the side of the tire and connect to the subwoofer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xsports Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago A 17-inch wheel is acceptable for driving; however, ensure that the subwoofer fits within the wheel's confines. I am unaware about the diameter of the submarine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flexfer Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago I placed a normal 18" CX-30 wheel atop the Bose subwoofer and fabricated an extra 8mm bolt to secure it. Ample space for a tool bag (jack, yellow jacket, etc.) organised around the wheel. Positioned two wooden pieces on the exterior sides of the boot/trunk to stabilise the 'fake' floor atop this configuration. Despite the presence of the thick rubber floor carpet, minimal space is compromised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honeycut_mazda5 Posted 7 hours ago Author Share Posted 7 hours ago That is an excellent suggestion; I appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doncaster34 Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago Are you prepared to share further photographs or further information? I intend to accommodate a full-size spare tire in that space, allowing ample room for accessories such as chargers and emergency equipment. Require inspiration.

Flexfer Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago I am now unable to take photographs as I am in the hospital; however, I will attempt to do it next week, if that is acceptable. Do not age; it will not be enjoyable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doncaster34 Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago Thank you very much. I am now in the planning stages of my project, but I have not yet encountered anyone who has utilised a full-size spare tire. Images would be appreciated at your earliest convenience. I wish you a swift recovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
