Default spare tire for bullitt

New to the forum. I just purchased an 08 bullitt and it has no spare tire, just the weight saving inflator kit. I would prefer to give up a couple of pounds and have a spare. Does anyone know what size spare is needed for the bullitt? It has 18X8.5 wheels stock. There are several 17" 94 - 04 cobra spares on ebay that state they are good for the 13" brakes. Will one of these fit?

Thanks
rex

Actually, ones on eBay will probably fit, but cannot say for sure. Do you have any friends with a Cobra or Mach 1 that can test fit theirs for you?

Oh.... I didn't read it close enough, sorry.

So it is deflated and you need to pump it up via kit in the trunk? Sounds like you might not have room to run a full-sized (or close to it) spare without sitting up in the trunk.

Pics of trunk with spare tire and kit?
