19" OEM Ray fit as a spare?
Whats up fellas, just need confirmation. Wondering if an 19" OEM Ray will fit in the back as a spare? Just upgraded to Brembos and realized if I get a flat the 17" thats in the trunk won't fit.
About to purchase one for cheap, would like to know for sure before I do.
Btw, the rim is a rear.
Thanks!!!

I have an OEM 19 as a spare and it "kinda" fits where your spare tire currently sits. Your trunk liner carpet will have a bulge in it and won't sit flat. So it will fit in there, but your trunk will no longer have a flat surface across since the OEM 19 will stick out a bit.
It might be different for those whose car came with a full size spare, which mine did not.

It should fit as long as your tires are fairly close to stock diameter. As CandlestickPark mentioned, the problem comes from the wheel being wider than the original spare. You can either deal with the hump or buy an extra set of the foam spacers to raise the whole floor of the trunk up a few inches.

Well, I meant buy some more foam spacers like the ones that come with your car if you have a full size spare. You'd have to order them from Infiniti and I have no idea how much they cost. Or you could go to Home Depot and try to find something similar and cut it to the right size.
