Flat tire worries

Not worried, I remove spares from some of my cars and include a can of fix-a-flat. Some of the cars come without a spare and they run on regular, non-runflat

I roll with a spare, tire repair kit, air compressor & electric impact gun
I even take a full size spare if going on road trip

Final Question On This Subject (For Now haha)
Got A 2011 Spare Tire - Good Shape - Never Been Used
Tire Is 8 1/2 Years Old - DOT 411 - Holds Air - Looks Like New
Should I Keep It OR Buy New 2020 Rubber??

Probably OK for a spare as long as you keep your speed down and don't do any crazy maneuvering while it is in use, but I'd go for some new rubber.

If you're looking to give it away, I'm sure you can find someone that wants/needs it. How long it takes you to sell it may depend on your price and the various marketplaces you advertise it.
