I was going to check, but presumed the rolling diameter would be the same for them all, and the 22" would have thinner rubber? |

Rolling diameter of both the 275/45/21 and 275/45/22 tyres is 1.9% smaller than the 295/40/22 tyres. |

Thanks Phil. How does the space saver compare? |

I assume the reduced size wheel has the same circumference as the 21/22 - i.e. 1.9% smaller than the SVR 22 wheels. You wouldn’t want to drive with odd sized wheels. The TC and ABS would have heart failure. |

So my options are tyre sealant or a low loader? |

No you need a reduced size spare, which is the no cost option for the SVR. SVR 2018 in Santorini Black. |

Forgive me I'm confused with the contradictory comments regarding the reduced section wheel and I've yet to figure out a part number or seen one for sale (can't order as option as bought used)

I thought I was confused before, but I'm more confused now. Via the new car config, the reduced section wheel seems to be what I thought was (and is widely advertised on eBay as) a space saver.

My wheels are standard 22 inch with 275/40 tyres and they fit. I am assuming they run on a 10 inch rim. M16 SVD8 ,4.4 HSE with a few extras, Sold R50 , Wife SQ5 , BMW R1200GSW. |

You're on a 9.5J rim. 10J is SVR specific Its the 295 tyre width, not the OD that prevents the floor sitting down on the SVR 22's |
