Re: 9000 brakes with 15 inch wheels Posted by blacksheep [Email] (#301) [Profile/Gallery] (more from blacksheep) on Wed, 13 Feb 2019 12:39:39 In Reply to: Re: 9000 brakes with 15 inch wheels, S Carlson, Tue, 12 Feb 2019 10:06:30 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
The 9000 16" spare (115/70R16) fits in the 900 space. The only issue being that it is off center with regards to the hold down bolt, making the crosspiece difficult to seat. I solved this problem by cutting a 6" disc out of 1/4" plywood, then locating and drilling an off center hole for the bolt. This allows proper alignment for the bolt and a positive clamping surface for the crosspiece.
Presumably the 15" spare would have no such issue.
Good luck.
