question

I did a search but could not find the answer.


1. What size is the spare tire on the Evo, if full, does it come with the same rim as the car?


2. I am looking for leg room figure in the back seat, anybody know the numbers


thanks,

Don't know about the bimmer but the Evo has pretty good space in back. Not Passat or Volvo amount of leg room but definitely enough for most people. There's also 2 cupholders in back
I'm 6'0" tall and sitting straight up in the back seat my head rubs just a tad on the roof. But since most people slouch anyway you won't hit at all. I did finally check out the seat adjustment on the Recaro seats and I have to say it's really friggin crappy. First off I hate having a knob to adjust the back of the seat. Secondly I had a hard time wedging my hand between the door side and the seat to turn the knob. My advice is to move the seat forward to clear space to adjust the back rest then slide it back to where you want it and leave it. Other than that I love the seats.

i'm pretty sure the evo has the same legroom as the lancer so you could go to the mitsu website and look at the lancer specs or go look at a lancer in the showroom.

According to something I read (One of the magazine articals or something) the spare is 17" Steel rim so it will clear the front or rear.. I think its actually a requirement to have some sort of road kit which includes a spare, or fix-a-flat...
