Spare tires are so dead on sedans. They're just so bulky and modern tires are so good and roadside assistance is a thing everywhere so they're just not worth it anymore.


I guess so. I ended up with a used Tesla. I remain worried someday I'll end up with a flat too far from help...


35 years of driving, I’m trying to remember the last time I changed a car tire. Oh, I know it happens, I plugged or replaced plenty in my days as a mechanic. But personally? A spare is dead weight. A roadside assistance card weighs a lot less.
