I'm familiar with Doug's work, good guy.

Thanks, that's what I needed.

I didn't think it would fit, I've only got 22.5" to work with. Guess I'll have to rely on AAA if I have a problem.

My GT3 has a collapsible spare that is 21 3/8" in diameter when deflated. I believe that any 996 4wd, or car that uses the 4wd chassis, (GT3/2, C4, or turbo) would use a similar size spare. Obviously I believe it could be used as a spare on a Boxster.
