A4 Spare Tire Question

[Kneale Brownson]

--
May depend upon the year of 5k, Richard.  My '86 5ktq parts car had a
full-sized wheel/tire for a spare.  I used that to replace the donut in my
5ktq.  I used the wheels off the parts car to replace the donuts in my
200q20v and in my wife's V8.

Maybe some day I'll have enough donuts to run four on a car?

I'll bet a junkyard could supply one of the donuts.

You want to pay the shipping/handling, I'll send you one of those I have
taking up barn space here.
