I made one long trip w/o a spare in the V8, course I didn't think about it at the time. Probably not good policy. I don't wanna try it again rolling to the the FFC. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

With the radiators in the front, there isn't room for a standard spare up there, and I'd like to keep the rear open for cargo. I think a space saver would stand up in the front. Where the hell do I get one, and what do they go for?

I used a narrow 356/912 wheel and had a donut type tire put on at a local shop - it is not collapsable. I wanted to know that it would work when I needed it to. Tire shops replace donuts with full size spares all the time and will usually have a few lying around. I only had to pay for dismounting and mounting (under 20 bucks).
