Spare Wheel/Tire
 
I've been driving my Cobra for awhile - no spare tire but luck has won out - no flats or other issues. The trunk can accommodate a wheel/tire - is there a setup other than buying an additional and expensive wheel as are on the car that should be considered or do most of you go without a spare and/or carry one on those temporary inflation cans?

Thanks for input.

I carry a tire patch kit, with the rubber plugs and glue, and I carry a small air compressor that I picked up from harbor freight. The air compressor uses a cigarette lighter plug, so I picked up a accessory plug that is wired to my battery in the trunk. Have yet to need it on my car, but have used the set up on my Mom's van, and it worked like a charm. Was able to air up the flat without having to remove the tire from the van. The compressor is not much bigger than an alarm clock, so it is a great space saver.
