Is this an 87 GN factory spare?

[El Corvino]

I am trying to make this vehicle back to show floor quality. Someone popped the trunk on their 87 regal and it had a P195/75R14 Steel Belted Radial. Does anyone know off hand (or have a sec to pop their trunk and look) what the actual factory spare tire is?

i'm too lazy to go out in the garage and check, but i think the mini spare in my 84 T Type is something like a 155/80/16 or some other such oddball size.. as far as i know, they all got the same spare tire..

Yea, I typed it into google... I got 15" rim size spares, 16" rim size spares, brand names like goodyear... I have no idea what they it's supposed to be

It's a Goodyear, Inflate to 40 psi., that's all I could read with the stupid carpeted trunk kit in the way.

I'll check my other car when I get home, no trunk kit.

T155D80/16 from my WE4 I bought new.

Inflate to 60 psi. that is....

It's a mini-spare not a full sized standard tire and rim.

Goodyear.

The space saver was standard; not sure if you could order a full size from the factory. Many people hated the small-tire back in those days and would swap it out for a "real" spare.

Original owner of my T had a dealer installed full size T spare when she took delivery.

Hmmm... Would that be on the RPO code or would that be TubroTNZO6 - If you opted for a dealer full size spare, could it have been any brand? Or would it still have been a good year?
