Panoz AIV Roadster Spare Tire
The Panoz AIV (Aluminum Intensive Vehicle) Roadster, a hand-built American sports car known for its speed and style, carries a distinct design element with the spare tire mounted visibly on the back of the car instead of being hidden in the trunk or underneath the vehicle. More than just being an aesthetic accessory, this easy-to-access, ready-to-use spare tire serves as a functional requirement for emergencies on the road. However, the manufacturer does not specifically mention the spare tire type and size; it would most likely match the Roadster's standard tire requirements that are Michelin Pilot Sport tires with dimensions of 245/40 ZR18 (front) and 285/40 ZR18 (rear). Generally, vehicle manufacturers recommend using the same type and size of tire as the regular ones for the spare to maintain safety and performance standards on the road.
Panoz AIV Roadster models manufactured from 1999 to 2000 have tires with overall diameter of 25.7", allowing the use of a temporary spare tire with a near same diameter as the OEM tire. Tire diameter and wheel diameter clearance have been taken into account for the specific Panoz AIV Roadster years and trims.
Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some Panoz AIV Roadster vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 24.9" to 26.5". Some AIV Roadster models may require the use of a traditional full-size tire as a spare. To ensure safe temporary mobility in case of a road emergency, always refer to the vehicle owner's manual for the correct Panoz AIV Roadster spare tire size designated by vehicle's manufacturer.
