Hi all, please assist with advice for the following problem.
I have 245/75/R15 tyres on the rear and 195/R14 tyres on the front of a beach buggy.
What size spare wheel should I carry? And reason?
I am guessing, 195/R14.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated,
thanks.

If either of them work you, give me a shout. They're in KZN.

Re: Beach Buggy Spare Wheel
1) One of each size...for obvious reasons
2) Good compressor and repair kit-(rubber plugs, vulcanising solution, etc). Reason- less space and weight than 2 spares.

Staying Aircooled is so much nicer.
