Have a fiat punto Grande sporting with 19" alloys.
No spare wheel or space saver fitted.
Q. Did the car have one as a option from new?
I want to get a spare wheel but all I can find are 15" space savers.
Not sure if a spare 19" alloy wheel will fit in boot space.
 
I think the factory wheel size was 15/16/17 inch so you likely won't find anything bigger I'm guessing you don't have factory wheels on as I don't think 19" was an option for the wheels


Imagine wrong however

You are indeed right, they only did 17s on the Grande at most, so 19s are well above the spec for the car, however you have lower profile tyres to keep the wheel size the same. You could carry a 15inch space saver just to get you home and drive at 50kph max as indicated on the space savers, but you won’t find a bigger space saver, as since the Grande fiat have moved away from spare wheels to get you home repair kits.

Some rangerovers had 19” space savers but that won’t fit a Punto and won’t help you.
 
You are right, its actually my sons car and he gave me the wheel size. Having got him to check again they are in fact 17".
So will go for the 15" space saver I have found as I cant find 17".
Thanks for the help.
