    Most do away with a spare altogether, and just use that "tyre weld" aerosol can in case of a flat.

    what ideas do you have for your setup? you might be able to conceal a space saver somewhere.

    i cant see why you cant make a false floor or door, what car is this going in?

    Yep, I had the same dilemma as you and I am in the process of building mine. Basically build a false floor. I cut out where the spare tyre will be with a jigsaw so you can still access your spare without having to take anything out. I am going to mount my amps to each side of the boot and build a cover over them. Then I'm going to build two custom sub boxes on each side of the rear of the boot leaving space for that access hole from the rear seats. I have attached a pic I found on the net which gave me the idea. Not sure if it helps you but it sure helped me!

    buy a roof rack? lol. as previously said, build your design around the original spot for the tyre has got to be the easiest and most practical option.
