RE: Pram wheels
I think Jim is refering to the section in the owners manual that refers to wheel diameter on AWD's and cars equipped with the visco-drive differentials (manual 70 series R's) but I aren't sure if manual 850R's used the same diff setup as the later cars.
With regards to the "new" V70's fitted with 225/45 tyres, a friend of mine ordered a full size 17" alloy spare for his V70 2.4T, and we managed to get it to fit in the well, after removing the plastic tray that fits under the lifting floor section.
Has anyone tried these aerosols, like the ones TVR use instead of a spare wheel ? I am fortunate/unfortunate enough to run a R AWD and it seams to me that the space saver ain't a lot of use at all if its going to wreck the diffs when used. Could these aerosols be a get you home alternative if the punctured tyre isn't gashed e.t.c ??
