Convertible Questions

gtfoh35 · 04-19-2023, 10:03 AM

Hello everyone,

I bought a used a 2016 convertible Touring Sport and I'm not sure if I'm missing the following items or they didn't come stock.

Spare tire/wheel (does the 19in wheels and oversized calipers have an option to purchase one)

Flat fix

Bose subwoofer

Does anyone know the paint code for the Ray's wheels. Three of them have terrible road rash and I want to have them repainted and no shop can match?

Thank you all.

I can speak on the spare wheel / tire: not all came with it from factory. I had to source a used one, which fits.

Welcome to the world of Z Roadsters! I've been enjoying mine immensely since I bought it new in 2017.

The roadsters don't have a spare tire; instead, they are supposed to come with a flat fix kit ("Continental Mobility Kit"). I ditched the kit and instead bought a spare on ebay, which fits into the wheel well if you remove the big styrofoam filler piece.

There are two subwoofers, but they're installed behind the seats, in the compartment where the convertible stop is stowed. (This is assuming you have the Bose system.)

Thanks both of you. Will the spare fits around the large caliper breaks?

The spare fits my car (touring spec); I assume it would fit the sport edition as well. The bolt pattern should be the same.

I’m the original owner for my 2010 Roadster Touring/ with Sport package. My Z came with a spare from the factory. On my original window sticker, it notes: “**Temporary Spare Tire Replaces Tire Repair Kit in Maryland.” Z was purchased in the Midwest.

Anyone else purchased a Roadster outside of Maryland that came equipped with the factory spare?
