Will stock spare fit over REAR Cobra brakes?

[M Darrah]

It's a really dumb time to ask this since I already bought a Cobra spare months ago, but... the subject says it all. I've heard people talk about moving a rear tire up front if the front goes, then using the stock spare on the rear. Does this method work for Cobra brakes? I'm not crazy about how the Cobra fits in my spare tire well. It has to be moved towards the rear in order to fit and the cover won't fit unless you cut off big chunks of the foam supports.

The mark viii spare wheel will fit over the rear cobra rotors, but it won't bolt up to the mustang bolt pattern hubs you have on your car.

You know, I can't say I really know for sure. I would think so.

Since I know a 15" drag wheel will fit, I would presume a 16" wheel would fit with no issues?

I'm confused however, what hubs do you have?

Yeah I had a brain fart earlier and forgot about the bolt pattern. Duh.

LMAO, I was thinking the same thing.

JP, the Mark Spare won't fit because of the way it curves in towards the fenderwell.
