| Have you thought about asking SVO Bespoke if they could help, rather than a dealer for whom it's probably more trouble than its worth? |

My wheels are standard 22 inch with 275/40 tyres and they fit. I am assuming they run on a 10 inch rim.
You're on a 9.5J rim.
10J is SVR specific
Its the 295 tyre width, not the OD that prevent ... |

What size do you have on?
Work out the overall diameter, can you get a narrower width but same diameter, standard size 21" ... |

Space save was meant as a generic phrase, not to say that's what you'll get.

| The 295 section SVR 22" doesn't fit under the boot floor, hence us not offering anything other than a space saver or a tyre repair kit. |

Well, do bear in mind I've not been involved with this programme so I'll always have a bias towards my gorgeous 15MY cars 
I think there's a lot of positives. The connectivity as you'd ... |
