Will the 307 SW spare wheel cradle hold a full size spare?
I recently bought a 2007 Peugeot 307 SW. When I lowered the emergency steel spare wheel to check it I found it was filthy dirty and very rusty. I have got hold of a matching alloy wheel with a standard 205R16 tyre on it. Do you think it is fine to hang this on the winch system? It is a little heavier!

If it fits the cradle, no reason why not. Consider putting it in a thick plastic garden waste bag to keep it cleaner, but remember it's in a very hostile place so dirt and damp will still get onto it so best to inspect it every six months or so.

Makes sense of the 307. Up to seven forward-facing seats. Good to drive. Decent diesels.
