Default 1996 Collectors Edition Spare Tire Question

I have a 1996 Collectors Edition. What is the correct spare tire and wheel combination for that car? Did it use a space saver spare or a full size spare?

Thanks.

This has been discussed time after time.

Your Vette tires size are located on the driver's door sticker. The spare tire are discontinued but, it was mentioned the new GTO's spare tire would fit.

Your particular car may never have had a spare on it. Look under the fuel tank. If you see a round well and a carrier there then your car once had a spare. If you see a flat bar blocking off that round area and no carrier then your car likely had no spare.

RPO UJ6 LTPWS, WY5 EMT, and N84 delete spare tire were commonly bundled.
