It is very rare for me to drive around with anything in the boot so I was wondering, why don't I have a spare wheel in there? Even one of those space saver things will ease the pain of a puncture.

The question - Does anyone carry a spare? If so what size/car is it from.

we'll probably take one down to Le Mans with us... but would prefer to keep that weight out of the car if poss + dont particularily want something like that clattering about inbetween fibreglass and a petrol tank. + they are ALOT bigger than you think (we recently had to get 4 wheels+ tyres in ours, we failed and two went in my car)

[O/T] though im sure a set of wheels can be fit in somehow?? (anyone know how?)[O/T]

so... RAC card in the wallet

Its great turning up at trackdays with a full set of spare wheels and tyres in the Cerb, One in the boot, Two laid flat on the centre console behind drivers seat, one directly behind passenger seat dished onto the other two if you get my drift, anyway you can get four in Dont forget to put the wheels in small pillowslip cases or similar. I had one lady stand and watch as i put them all back in because she thought it was impossible.
