No. It's wide. The hatch won't shut properly.
Yes 17,18&19 will all fit, in terms of rolling diameter they are almost all identical. But The width of the 235 tyre is too wide to get the hatch closed and locked. Given that the poster refers to a permanent solution I doubt he would want the hatch flapping about. I have tried a 17" exclusive wheel fitted with 235/65/17 tyre and it most definitely doesn't allow the hatch to close flat. Also bear in mind that some of the earlier antaras came with a 235 60 17 tyre and could mean you need to change that too.Grumps said:No true only the 19" alloys are a tight fit but even they fit with a bit of a squeeze. If you want to check and you have a jack etc take one of the alloys off and try it.
You are unlikely to be able to find a space saver wheel for the Antara, although you might find a second hand one on ebay, at a scrap dealer or somewhere associated with the Captiva. People on here seem to have gone down one of two routes. Either just get another wheel and tyre identical to what is fitted to your car or go for a 16 inch steel wheel and get a 215/70R16 tyre fitted. Both these options will still allow the spare to fit below the floor if you remove the central part of the foam moulding.regiment739 said:Well just had to have a new tyre fitted, none of the tyre places would repair the tyre with the stuff thats put in, whether its the slime stuff or that stuff that comes with the so called repair kit, so I am going to splash out on a space saver but not sure which one to get!
