I am almost 37 and travel a decent amount. Have never had a flat tire. and if it happens, BMW will send someone out. If that fails, my car insurance will send someone out.

I just couldnt imagine deciding on what car I am biying over such a trivial thing.
I don't get that many flats, but I do get enough to make me want to carry a spare tire, especially with all that I've seen and experienced with some of these so called "roadside assistance" services. I know it's a weird thing to base a car buying decision on (but it's not the only thing). However, I have seen my fair share of tire issues where it's important enough to be one of the things on my list as part of my buying decision.
