Bag for the Spare Tire?

HighIQCar · 08-11-2008, 04:05 AM

I saw on a previous post where someone had a spare tire behind the drivers seat, and they had a really cute yellow smiley face bag to put the tire in. They said they got it from "Bag Lady - Just search google to find the site." Well, I found www.njbaglady.com that carries them, however there is no shopping cart on the site and no prices listed. I emailed asking the price and how to go about purchasing the bag, and got no response. Anyone know anywhere else I can buy one of the bags?

Thanks.

Pix is the spare from "Tire Rack". Bag from "The Bag Lady.

My Smart dealer ,Smart Bloomfield MI, sells the steel wheel for $80, The tire 155 160 R15 for $90. See the Tire and wheel forum for more details. A2Jack

Sorry I couldn't find the link. If I remember correctly, it is a semi-homemade cover. Maybe a2jack can repost his source. Thank you.

That's the right link.

If you go to the left side of the window click on "Compact Spare Tire Bag" which will open up this full size product window on the right side.

There you will select the cover and will see your PayPal shopping cart.

Edit: From the Bag Lady's page: **If you are ordering a bag for a Smart spare tire, you should be ordering a Spare Tire Bag, not a Full-Size Tire Bag**

I had Robyn make me a custom bag for my spare that also holds jack, emergency kit, wrench, etc. Fits behind seat for my 5'8" size. But this is like a suit holder and has handles. She would have done one with a smiley, but not my cup of tea. She does great work!

She does this as a side business and is swamped. Be patient, she'll get back to you.

Robyn is great!! Besides working 5 days a week as a Professional Engineer, she does this for spareless folks like us!! My bag is basic black and cost me a little over $40.00 including shipping. It's parked behind the drivers seat and I'm 5'11".

Tire rack has a deal on a pair of carriers for around $25.00. I found that it will hold everything tire/jack gray and black with their logo. And you have a spare tire bag for formal affairs.

Instead of a smiley face, can she put the Smart logo on it? That would be cool. I think putting Disney's Goofy on it would be cool but there might be legal problems with it.

I have seen some SUV's that have the spare on the back held in place with a special bracket. Could something like this be done for the Smart?
