   Hi there,
   just wondering if anyone had a spare 155/70 13inch wheel (that's right, I'm rolling on steels...) kicking about, preferably in Cambridgeshire.
   Will bung whoever some money for it of course.
   
   Many thanks.

   If you've got a spare it needs to be within legal limits to pass the MOT, if you havent got a spare at all then they cant test it, hence its not a fail. That was always my understanding anyway.
   
   Loads of new cars come without spares these days.

   Try a couple of scrap yards in your area you might be able to get one from another car like a pug or similer wheel size
