Yep, it's cool and so is mine...until I took a good look at the spare one day. It's undersized!

Exoto "chumped" us!

No, no.... just open the the trunk & remove the spare. That wheel is smaller than the other four.

(PICS) Exoto chumped us! Take a good look. Even Carroll Shelby is upset.

In making the spare wheel-well, Exoto goofed. Instead of re-engineering it to the CORRECT size they chose to DOWNSIZE the tire. Thereby producing an UNDERSIZED wheel for a spare.
