Huh, I've always thought of the spacesaver tires as fitting on their own
special rims (which are invariably narrow -- that's why they are
spacesavers). Never occurred to me to try putting one on a stock rim. I
wonder if that is practical. I think you're going to have to inquire with
the manufacturers.
