For those of you who took out the jack/tools, and spare tire to shead some pounds, what do you have in the event of getting a flat tire? do you just have to park it and wait for a ride to get your shit or what? I'm concidering but still a little worried...

 

why bother? what are you racing around your city?
leave the tools in place man. save your friends & family the trouble of having to give you a lift home.

 

I removed my tire to get some more storage area. If I have a flat I will have to hitch a ride or get someone to bring me the spare.

 

I find that the easiest solution is to removed the tool tray and place the tools on top of the spare. This gains a LOT of storage space (ok, comparatively speaking), but retains the use of the spare. Realisitically, there isn't a ton of space to be gained by removing the spare anyway.

 

it's called fix a flat... .. it actually works rather well.. should be enough to get you home or to a tire shop.....keep in mind it'll only work if it's a nail type puncture... the other thing you could do is get AAA.... but you'll have to wait a while.. cause they take forever to get to you.....

 

There's no point in removing spare or tools for regular street driving.

 

I CARRY FIX A FLAT TOO

 

Leave the stuff in until you get to the track. However, you can take the jack & tools and wrap them in a towel or something and set them down in the spare tire. That way, you can take out the styrofoam tool kit holder and make more room in your trunk.

 

if you are not traveling farther than 50 miles i would but dont. tire jack is a joke. id rather call someone to bring the proper tools if its not too far

 

hows fix-a-flat work?
