[QUOTE="mcutler, post: 684391, member: 1641"] [b]Re: Re: 90's throw back....Manche build[/b] I here ya. Been much discussion on the ingress and egress of spare tire. But it's really no issue. I picked it up and put it in over the tool box with the sides on, alone, with no damage, (and a towel laid over the toolbox). Once propped on the box I go to the side and pick up on the center of wheel and slide it on to the perch. Fortunately its only 132 lbs, versus the 180 of a 43 sticky and raceline... and the 37's are even lighter... at 123.

But hard to have a "sleeper" with that big tire up over the rails somehow.
