Will a OEM 16" spare wheel fit Clubman spare compartment?

After my incident on freeway last week, I am thinking to get an OEM 16 spare wheel, but does it fit in the Clubman spare compartment?

I will have to try, but I am sure it will not fit.

humm...what about 15" OEM? But I don't think 15" OEM will fit in front for Clubman S anyway, so it has to be 16"

spare tire

It has to be a 15" temporary spare and that just fits in the tire well. You have to put a good rear tire on front if you have a flat up there and then use the temporary on the rear. I bought a temporary spare of ebay that was advertised as a 16" thinking that would be better but when I got it, it turned out to be a 15" which I was grateful for since it JUST fit. It was from an Acura Integra, never been on ground $40 total.

So, I guess I will stick with my Cobalt donuts spare for now, no full size for me then.
