Question about donuts

And no, not the ones you eat.

Does anyone know if the 5.5 spare will fit over 6th gen front brakes?
Are the spare rims different from 5.5 gen to 6th gen?

Besides me taking my front rim off and trying myself, just wondering if anyone already knew.

As a fat kid i only get excited about sugary donuts

I think not. The 5.5 spare is a 16 inch wheel. The 6th gen is a 17 inch wheel. The 6th gen has larger diameter brake rotors and this is probably why the 6th gen spare is 17 inches.
