    Great find! Thanks for sharing! Itā€™s good to see non-OEM solutions coming to the market! Iā€™ve ordered the collapsible space saving Porsche tyre. Iā€™ll post pictures when it eventually arrives.

    Collapsible Spare Tyre for Macan EV Electric (Porsche OEM accessory)!!

    itā€™s most certainly not all you need. I had a tyre cut on my new Macan within a week of taking delivery - and the cut happened on the side wall. The sealant canā€™t be used. The AA called a tyre man who had to procure a new tyre from London (I was in Brighton) - all in all a 4 hour job whilst I...

    Macan Turbo EV - home made spare wheel kit?

    Right - Iā€™m at the Porsche centre at Reading - and just found a solution. Who knew Porsche had a collapsible spare tyre + wheel for the Macan Electric!!!! News to me. I didnā€™t even know these existed - they save space (max 50 mph). You have to inflate the tyre before use, and deflate it before...

    Macan Turbo EV - home made spare wheel kit?

    This arrived today and itā€™s too short and does not fit the car. So tomorrow I will measure the right diameter needed but Iā€™m guessing itā€™s about 10cms and needs to protrude taller too.

    Macan Turbo EV - home made spare wheel kit?

    Rightā€¦. I finally got it - and youā€™re right - itā€™s a rectangular jack headā€¦and no damage to my car by the tyre man. And under the car thereā€™s some sort of metal sheet protecting everything - the composite material is just around the edges!

    Macan Turbo EV - home made spare wheel kit?

    Got it! I am sure I photographed the wrong thing - these could be water escape holesā€¦. I will look tomorrow again during daylight (itā€™s 9.38pm here).

    Macan Turbo EV - home made spare wheel kit?

    I guess this is only around the edges of the underside. Iā€™ll check tomorrow again and will try to take a picture deeper under the car!

    Macan Turbo EV - home made spare wheel kit?

    I donā€™t know if these are the jack points but these are the holes on the underside of the car near the wheelsā€¦. are those it? They each seem to have an indentation next to them. Maybe I should be looking for something else :)

    Macan Turbo EV - home made spare wheel kit?

    BTW - Iā€™ll be looking tomorrow at the jackpoints on my carā€¦. Iā€™ll post a picture. I hope the tyreman didnā€™t damage anything when jacking up the car in the dark ! I guess the folks at Porsche would have told me, but you never knowā€¦. šŸ˜’

    Macan Turbo EV - home made spare wheel kit?

    thank you! Youā€™re an absolute star! Iā€™ll be looking to see if a 20 in tyre + rim will be cheaper than using my own 22 in t plus a new rim. Iā€™ll be looking at jacks now. thank you so very much! And Happy New Year to you and please do send pics of your beautiful new ride when you have it ok...

    Macan Turbo EV - home made spare wheel kit?

    Thank you. I appreciate that. However, this would be a temporary solution to get me going. No different to the usage of a space saver wheel.
