New guy/GXP/one question

**cz21** · 07-03-2014

Hello All. I just purchased a 2006 grand prix gxp. The car is white with tinted windows,and 16k orig miles. This will be my daily driver.The car has been great so far. I have been lurking on here for a few weeks before purchase. I will be having a trans cooler installed next week. I can't believe I didn't know about the lack of spare tire before purchase. I tried a space saver spare from a Bonneville ssei,it bolts up but won't turn.I assume it is rubbing on the rotor. Is there a space saver spare that will fit in the trunk,and work on the car? Thanks!

x2. Nice find. I just picked up a spare and jack kit recently. There will be a slight hump in the floor of the trunk because the spare won't fit perfectly, but it's not that noticeable.

Thanks for all of the spare tire help. I saw the car for sale on autotrader,and thought the mileage was a typo. I talked to the dealer who said the miles were legit,and that it was immaculate. They weren't kidding! Three hours later it was in my driveway. Thanks again.
