It's 3 degrees according to the car, -1 according to the weather app

It’s time to clean!

Fun fact: the spare is full-sized (full sized meaning it’s a stock size for the Fiesta . It doesn’t match the stock size on an ST, which is 205/40R17, hence the warning stickers).

The car also comes with a fluid funnel, located in the incredibly inconvenient spot of under the spare tire.

If the spare is full size, why does it have maximum speed stickers?

That fluid funnel is actually there to let you open the capless fuel door.

The funnel is for gas right? To bypass the capless system

You know, I totally forgot about that being a thing. Thanks for pointing that out!

... it’s still in an inconvenient spot, though.

“Full size” in a sense that it’s a stock size for the car, but not the ST . It’s the same size as my winter wheels, but a different size from the summers. I imagine running different sized tires above 80 km/h is a bad time.

As I’ve been told! It’s probably explained in the owner’s manual that I only got a French copy of.

As long as its not on a driven axel should be alright, not optimal, but alright. Could lead to so weird handling characteristics, but in an emergency it should be alright.

Absolutely agree but at least you don’t have to buy a lock to put over it! Ford already has a safety interlock to keep people from putting things in your fuel and from siphoning your fuel.
