Well after paying a $300 dollar tow bill ....I am looking into buying a spare tire. I have yet to find a "space saver" spare.....anyone know where I can buy one?

Thanks in advance!

^ isn't the runflat comes with spare tires too? The run flat purpose is so you won't lose control right?

no, cars with runflat by default don't have spare. the idea of runflat is even when flat, you can go x number of miles
