Hi all. I'm very confused as to what size space saver I need. I own a 2013 N - Connecta & the tyre size is 215/55R18. The more I look , the more confused I get. The handbook suggests T145/90R16 & the Wheel Shop suggests R18 ? Can someone please confirm what I need & possibly an outlet to buy from. TIA. Tony

Use https://tiresize.com/tyre-size-calculator/ and try to get a spare with the closest matching circumference to your current tyres.

Although mines a J11b I think the spare should be the same for your J11 as my understanding is the 16inch space saver is fine for all J11 models. I recently purchased this space saver for my peace of mind and not trusting a can of goo - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/235225566100.
Just be aware that if you have the raised boot floor (standard on the N-Connecta) you will loose some of the space below it. I recommend having the foam inserts as they raise up the lower floor and provide slots to store the other accessories (jack, wrench, etc.).

Hope you guys can help.. I've a 2016 Tekna with the 19" alloys.. was goig to get a 16" but a seller has suggested this may not fit over the front brake calipers and is instead suggesting a 19" variant (at nearly twice the price). Conversely, I have seen on here potential issues just fitting a 17" into the bootwell... My preference would be the one that takes up least space (and hopefully least out of my pocket), but clearly it's no use if it only fits a rear wheel), can anyone help dispel any myths?.. thanks in advance
