I guess being a 2013 its a facelift?
I only ask as my pre facelift 5 door has a spacesaver in it - I think its the same wheel, but with a smaller size tyre 115/70-16

I've just put both those tyre sizes into a tyre size calculator.
it says the 135/90 is 82mm (or3.23 inches) bigger diameter than the 115/70 which may the reason it doesn't fit?
did you get it from Vauxhall?

Sorry, I've just noticed it says your in north devon.
I'm in Bideford.
I've found that Parkside/County Vauxhall are OK for basic stuff, but have no idea about upgrades or accessory fitment. probably the same for most GM dealers from what I can see.

hi yes bud i went to parkside in barnstaple, i live a stone throw away.they are good but im sure its wrong.also i have noticed ive put this in the wrong place sorry mods sure you could put it right.

Guys,  Ive just bought a used space saver for my 15 plate J 2.0 CDTI and its a 115/70/16, and it drops in neatly.  With the dimensions you give as a 135, I have to ask is it a full sized wheel?  you say it doesnt fit the well, do you mean diameter wise or it goes in but sits high above the boot floor and the boot board cant lie flat and sits on the wheel...  A full sized wheel will NOT fit the well.  I have read threads on here where some owners have dropped a full sized wheel in but then put blocks either side for the boot baseboard to rest on.  Sure if you trawl through you'll find the same posts.
