HELP! Spare tire with Eibach Pro-kit

Will the G be driveable with the spare tire and Eibach springs Pro-Kit? I need to put it on but it looks scarely tall. Anyone have any answers before I jack it up?

What do you mean scarely tall? The spare isn't bigger in diameter then the stock rims which are on the car. You should be alright.
What spare you got?

I didn't take into consideration my stock potenza is totally flat so it is lower lol!!! DUH. But it looked so tall when I layed the spare up against the tire while on the car. I'm getting ready to jack it up and put it on. I jus didn't want to have to deal with any scrubbing until Discount gets my tire in.

No you'll be fine. Just a little bit taller in rubber won't hurt anything. Plus you're not slammed or anything, just Eibach drop. You'll be fine.

Ok last question, I haven't changed a tire in years!!! Isn't there some pattern to tightening the lug nuts? Is it somewhere in my manual?
