18 inch wheel wont fit underneath as my old 17 inch spare was a tight fit.

Just to tell everyone thinking about fitting a same size alloy wheel ( 18" ) underneath their connect, YES, it does fit and easily.Just fitted a new wheel carrier and it pulled the alloy up as you would expect.Now I need a cover to stop it getting mucked up !!!

New carrier on Ebay from Ireland, £65 + £6 postage, but you'll need the 5 bolts. 10mm and 8 mm i think.Easy to fit.

Sport,
Am in the process of doing this to my van with an 18" spare. The new carrier assembly I bought has a safety cable that attaches to the hub carrier, but where on the chassis does the other end bolt to?
Cheers in advance.
