How many people don't carry a spare tire?
 

Just curious as to how many of you use run flat tires and don't carry a spare anymore? Do you feel safe using run flats? As in your rims won't be ruined by using them in their intended way?

are you planning on doing something that takes up the spare tire area? run flats wont ruin your rims cause its designed to hold up when its flat. just gotta pay attention to your tpms sensors cause prolonged driving would make it bad. ride quality is a little rougher too since the rubber is harder but not by that much.

I don't carry the spare or use run flats. Since my Z is a weekend warrior, I usually never venture to far from home. If I plan on traveling far, I'll throw the spare back in.

Oh, and run craps are usually pretty heavy compared to a standard tire.

avoid RFT
 

Just my 2 cents

Low profile run flats can be like concrete. Cost more, and it's hard to find a tire shop to put them on/off without scratching your wheels. Avoid them if you can would be my advice. I'm actually excited to have a spare for the first time in 4 cars.

I use AAA instead.:tup:

I purchased a spare just because I didn't want to wait for road side assistance

I figure the spare tire offsets the weight of the spare tire I carry around my belt, and helps keep the car balanced

Reminds me. I still have to take mine out. Free weight lose ftw :tup:

Hmm, pretty sure I have a spare under the Bose sub

Which reminds me I should take them both out next time I go tracking

I took mine out




Mods, can we make this a poll???

:iagree: AAA is the best

LMAO, I was thinking to myself, wait, I don't know this guy... (My initials are "AAA") but yeah, I'm the best, :tup:

No spare. No run flats. No AAA. :ugh2:

no spare...no flats....roadside assistance :tup:

How much does the spare weigh?
