6x15 porsche wheel + 165/50 15 as a sparetire on a 72' bug?

You know, de-chromed, big Porsche rims, Brembos, etc.,... German Look rules!

Does 6x15 porsche wheel fit to sparetire space on a standard 72' beetle? I can get two porsche wheels cheap, so i am thinking to use as spare tire etc. Tire choice would be 165/50 15.

I would guess no. My stock size radial on a 15x5.5 has to be forced in.

I have to lay my spare 6x15 in the luggage area,it way too wide even with a 145 tyre.
