Spare tire

How many of you do not carry a space saver tire with you when you are driving on non-RFT? I am thinking of getting winter tires for winter months only and didn't order the space saver option. Trying to figure out if I should pay for space saver which is a lot more expensive if not ordered with the car. Thanks. Alex.

Same here - but instead of spending on the space saver I'm thinking of getting a tire repair kit- BMW makes it's own - it's called the mobility kit- and you can also get one mafe by continental off tire rack as well - or just make your own - al those kits really have is a small air compressor/pump and some tire sealant which you can pick up at most hardware stores. That AAA = peace of mind and appease murphys law as well
