Need spare tire for camaro	Sign In

Hello today I need help finding a spare for for my chevey 1995 z28 Camaro. It has need missing a spare tire since i got it it the previous owner had a probolem with mice and there was a bar of soap where the spare tire would go so the smell would keeps them away. For a while I have just been putting a full size tire on top of the back seats with them collapsed and an old sisor jack and lug wrench on the floor. But the probolem is it takes up a lot of space and it would be really nice to be able to use my back seat again. I looked on eBay and I can't find a single one I also don't have the hardware the jack I have nothing. My question is where do I get them I need everything the tire jack hardware lug wrench everything I what it all new or gently used also one more thing the car has bigger corvette wheels on it so does that mean I will need a bigger spare thanks for your time and help

Question: You just want the OE set up that will all fit where originally put - right? I have to ask if lug nut pattern is now all changed or just different wheels and tires now on the car such that OE wouldn't even fit if you tried - that's all.

Some if you just ask you most local salvage yard it should cross over for multiple years as a "donut" spare. Still a total PITA to use and meant for emergency, temporary use and should say so on tire so you know that.

Ask and ask if not one salvage yard for another and go with the car and make sure it's right and mounts super cheap jack and tire with proper parts so at least it's not a rattling mess.

Have grabbed a few sets - short bucks by my local places if not unique to Camaro especially,

Yes the lug nut pattern is the same just different wheels I would also prefer to get the tire online and have it sent to me

Do it your way - I can't know costs for delivering.
Where I am all wheels must be removed from vehicles before any picking so I would get there and check out what just came in myself as the inventory usable parts. That way you also can get stuff not soaked already or a clue how good for anything where that would matter,

Do you even have room for a full size spare? If it came with a donut, that's all that will fit there.
