Posted July 22, 200817 yr I sm trying to get my trunk ready for everything but before I start deadening I need to decide what to do with my spare tire well. I know I cant leave everything in there cuz it will vibrate like a mother. But if I take everything out there is just a big hole so what can I do to cover this that won't cause any noise?
July 22, 200817 yr What's in there? I usually just take everything out, deaden the well. Throw the tire back in, and then put ensolite or some kind of foam between each piece or wrap each tool or what ever individually before you put them back in. Get rid of the metal to metal or plastic to metal physical contact.
July 22, 200817 yr Author Well it won't matter if the tire is in there or not really because the box is gonna be over it and impossible to get out. Also the cover for the tire well is a big sheet of plastic pretty much. Will the weight of the box be enough to hold it down so that it won't vibrate it?

Foam rubber, towels , weather stripping or something. That way you know for sure it's not going to rattle.
