Space save wheels? Ever seen on like this?

Been looking for a spare wheel for my car wheni go to Europe and saw a new merc one a while ago where the tyre wall was less than a inch tall! Think I showed bob and a few others at Christmas time!

Just seen on and had to search for it on YouTube!

Gues if you dnt have much room it's a great design but trying to find one for sale is quite hard lol

Seen one on a porsche many years ago .. Bloody clever .
Wouldn't like to try and put it back in the car

Are they like a one time use ????

That's very strange, I wouldn't like that on my car. Wouldn't trust it in the hands of some of the idiots on the road; the amount of people I see go past me at 70 with a spacesaver is shocking  

No there a normal space make but more compact from what iv read and will deflate back to how they were! Can also be driven flat for a few mikes if you get completely stuck too!

And your not wrong Pete we was talking about current mot's the other night as at one point they would pass a mot with a space saver on so they changed the rules to opposite side tyres match size and stuff!

Ive always wanted to put 4 on the pulsar and go out when its been snowing to see what its like  

Been there done that lol
Let's just say it's interesting haha

I once saw a woman in a great big Mercedes ML undertaking down the inside line with a space saver on at about 110mph  
I still to this day dont know how it could handle that kind of abuse some people just havent got a clue! 

Silly question maybe!

If you have too use one of these and it's not inflated and you don't have a compressor, how do you pump it up?

Never seen that before, pretty cool that is, bet its quite expensive tho.

Alot of the newer cars have air compressors in the back ....

If you haven't got a means of inflating you can actually drive to a really restricted speed for a few miles to a garage to inflate it!
Kind of a good Idea realy I guess

Looks like a giant sphincter ! (say's what)

Got one of those in my old 944. Takes a very long time to pump up with a foot pump..
