Some specks...To make the tires fit, the back axle is moved back about 12,5 cm
And the same is done to the chassie brackets in front(my English sucks)
The body are lifted 8cm and the springs 4cm.
brake disks are "cutted"..turned?? down to make place for 15'' rims, and the brake calipter are modified...The reason why I want so small rims innstead for 16'' or 17'' is to make the tire to weld out properly...
*please point out my wrong spelling so I can learn this*....lol

What part of Norway are you from?
You like the smaller rims so you can air down more?

You have any links to a good Norwegian/English translator online?
Enjoy seeing the pictures. You drive in a lot of deep snow?

I new arctic had a shop in Norway, which would suit us to buy from, as we have access to sea freight from Norway to Australia.

I would guess it's a storage compartment with no spare in it.

Now this is guna sound really really dumb 
If you can't carry a spare on the door (and I recon it won't fit in the back) what do you do when you get a flat tyre .

No problemo, remember it's a Yota, and I think their bearings is from the Tiger Tank... I know plenty of people who drive theese cars, and never a single problem with bearings. But a quik round over the grease nippels two ore three times a year is very important...(But that have nothing to do with the bearings)
Only my bad spelling, causes so crappy text and grammar...sry
