No spare wheel? Did the car only come with a compressor and a bottle of slime? Well, you need a Hero!NEW VERSION!Wheelwright have teamed up with one of Europe’s leading Space Saver steel wheel manufacturers to deliver the most comprehensive space saver wheel kit on the market, featuring a 17" space saver wheel fitted with a 125/80/17 tyre, 5 wheel nuts, jack, wheel brace, warning triangle, kneeling mat, gloves, hi-vis jacket, head torch and rain poncho, all packaged in a simple and tidy bag.The RoadHero Space Saver Wheel Kit solves a genuine problem – and the demand is high. For many years, Wheelwright have delivered a steel wheel programme, featuring full-size steel wheels for over 95% of the car park, manufactured by Alcar Stahlrad in Germany. However, with wheel-wells getting smaller; and manufacturers opting to save weight by only supplying cars with tyre-slime rather than any form of spare wheel, the need is great. Tyre Slime is one solution, which many are happy to use, but more people demand a genuine wheel replacement to get them home safely. This is where RoadHero comes in.Fits all Mk3, 3.5 & 3.75 models, 2005>2015. Please Note: This will NOT fit in the boot of the retractable hardtop model.Please Note: These are tempory "get you home" wheels and are not suitable for prolonged use or high speeds. Every effort should be made to get the original tyre repaired or replaced as soon as possible.

An all-eventualities covered kit; however, I did have to deflate the tyre slightly to get it into the boot.

Hi wheel arrived day after ordering excellent service as stated by other reviews had to deflate to make it fit in boot but that’s not a problem for the peice of mind you get (recently had puncture on Jazz which I also had a space saver for and glad I did)comes with jack and tools all in the wheel cover so you don’t have a bare wheel in the boot thank you for your excellent service

It was delivered the day after ordering, just what is needed for my piece of mind and reducing the shopping bill due to limiting boot space! Came with zip cover and a jack with 2 part handle and wheel nut spanner. I was advised to let the air out to get the wheel in the boot, and this was needed, So I must remember to check that the compressor supplied with the car is working. I am pleased with the service received and the wheel kit, thanks.

Been researching a spare for quite a while & the RoadHero Space Saver is the best & only accredited option when you consider your wheel size & the rolling circumference has to be same as your road wheels so as not to upset the ABS / traction control etc. After taking less than 24hrs from initial order to delivery - after a small amount of pushing and easing it fitted straight in the boot (without supplied cover) & without need to deflate the tyre - 2011 Mk3.5 1,8 Miyako with fabric roof. The spare also sits reasonably flat to the floor & takes surprisingly little space as its a true skinny spare- overall very impressed & great peace of mind if ever needed. Mazda should supply these or similar as standard - well done MX5parts!

Where do you put the wheel that you take off ? On the passengers lap ?

Fits both front and rear of my 2009 sports tech (retractable roof) but too big to go in boot.I let out a few psi and it goes in with a shove towards right hand side of boot.Mazda compressor pumps it up quickly.

Very good quality wheel and tyre, I have the retractable hard top and to fit the boot I deflated it rather than remove any trim.
