Spares are a challenge for both of our cars.  Sophy is running 205/55R16s in the rear and 175/55R15 in the front.  I have a mini donut spare for her that I have never had to use…fortunately.

Jill’s Type 34 Ghia is running 195/55R15 in the rear and 175/55R15 in the front.  Both on Cosmic wheels.  I have a 185/55R15 spare on a matching Cosmic wheel.  I figured half way in-between the front and the rear was the best option.  Also have not needed to use her spare either.

I also carry a can of fix-a-flat in all my cars.
