New guy so a noob question - re spare wheel cover

Hi, new guy here, yes I’ve got a Jimny, standard at the moment, but’s it’s my second and I love them. My question is at the moment I have a vinyl spare wheel cover that covers the whole spare wheel - how does one swap it for a spare wheel disk that sits in the center of the spare wheel, but just appears to have a central hole? Is the mount different ( told you it was a noob question - braces for sarcastic responses) - Go
Cheers.

Welcome to the forum, I have asked worse

Think you need one of these

Excellent - many thanks for that. Makes a lot more sense now!

Not a daft question at all (and welcome by the way).

I have one of these covers going spare with the little bracket if you need both. They came off Ulysses and are no longer needed. The plastic disc is in metallic red/burgundy.

Hello Mark and a BigJimny welcome from the Cotswold hills

Would your proposed set-up mean that the spare tyre is left uncovered? ie You just want the disc that cover's the wheel?

The reason I ask is that the tyre itself really needs to be protected from UV light.
UV light is the biggest enemy of tyres.
The tyres fitted to the in-use wheels are partially exposed but theyre also partially shaded by the car itself, the spare isn't so lucky and a cover of some descrition for the tyre is certainly needed.

Sadly Max this isn't entirely true, once a tyre gets a sniff of UV the degradation process starts. If you keep the tyre sheilded from the light most of the time the compound hardens. It might appear to be in good condition, but it isn't. I have motorcycles kept in a dark shed for 90% of their lives but the compound still degrades. Wheel covers can look very smart and are a great plaque for advertising but for UV protection not so great.
