spare tire w/ LS1 brakes?
I have the "LS1" brakes on the front. I assume my spare tire is now useless for it....or is it?
Any other options?
thanks

Have you tried your spare yet? Maybe you just need to find a 16" wheel spare?

My car is a Formula so it had 16's to start with....whats the deal with 3rd gen spares? I just assumed with the bigger brakes that it wouldn't fit.....no I have not tried it.....nor am I going to until spring.
