borail Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Hey guys I was wondering if you could help me out with what vehicles will have a spare donuts I can get out of a junk yard that will fit the c max for when I go on long trips in case of blowout. I do want a spare donuts in case of long trips. Personally I think ford is going the wrong direction not putting spares in these vehicles but that's another topic and its not just them doing. I know I read on a forum before someone got one out of the junk yard for like 25 dollars that fit the c max but I know its got to be off the right car so that it matches the bolts on the c max. If anyone knows what used cars would be compatible or if there's a site that will tell me what spare donuts will fit the c max off other cars please let me know. I'm not willing to pay 200 dollars for a spare on eBay when I can get one out of junk yard for 25 or around, I know some may think I'm tight but money doesn't go on trees and I don't need a new one when I can get something to work just as good.

obob Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 (edited) I think a lot of info you want is in this thread. http://fordcmaxhybridforum.com/topic/1116-spare-tire-solution-for-c-max-hybrid/?hl=%2Bspare+%2Btire I have a windstar spare ( not all years fit ). Some people would not choose the windstar spare because of its age, but I am not so concerned about that. I believe I read in the above thread some ford focus spares work but not all though it has been a while since I read that thread. I got my spare from ebay and it did not cost much. Some people just buy a full size wheel and tire. Edited May 6, 2014 by obob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtb9153 Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 (edited) where you plan on storing the spare? there is no place other than the rear cargo area and I personally wouldnt be willing to give that up for a spare plus it will slide around while you are driving. Good luck Edited May 6, 2014 by mtb9153 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
