Title: Orange Space Saver in 1967?
Post by: johncatania on July 30, 2020, 02:17:57 PM: I'm the third owner of a 1967 Mustang Fastback survivor car. In a container of parts that came with this car was a BF Goodrich collapsible space saver tire. In my research, I found it to be for a 1970 AMC AMX but before I replace it I wanted to be sure. FOMOCO is nowhere to be found on the rim, but stamped in the metal is a K2 over a 2 and a 2 on the left side of the valve stem. On the right side of the stem is a 20 and a 50. Then there is a K2 over a 1, LS, N, and a 12 stamped into the metal. The tread has no wear. Any info would be appreciated.

Curious to know what size is on the sidewall of the spare?Dose it have a single valve stem or one that looks like a double ?

Have you also tried other forums that focus on other makes and models?

Apparently you didn't read reply #3 posted 3 years ago that concluded the same thing. At least now after 3 years you have some closure.
