foolish wheel questions

[calmone]

just purchased a 2002.

 

1) (REALLY STUPID) if i purchased a spare, as i see a few on ebay, is there a problem stowing it in the place provided in the trunk? i ask because i saw something in the forum about a possible issue with the top being lowered?

2) if i need to use the spare, will the existing lug nuts work or are different ones possibly required ( i assume the doughnut will be the necessary diameter, etc.)?

3) i hate wheel locks, without looking i assume one nut requires the key, where (if possible) can i purchase a matching non locking lug to replace the locking one?

A space saving spare, which I bought from a dealer, and the tire from Belle Tire, will fit in the spare tire well underneath the mat, without interference from the top. You can replace the key lug with the standard lug, for the sc.
