Awesomo996

I was spending some time with my mistress tonight (I am out in the garage drinking beer and watching TVsitting next to my car), and it hit me. I have this cool little spare tire in the frunk which is great, but after I swap it out for the flat where do I put the flat tire? I measured the rear wheels and I don't think one would fit in the frunk, I would have to put the flat in the back seats right?

Or maybe I would change the flat, leave it in the ditch (marking the location on my GPS) then drive to where I had cell hone coverage so I could call for a flat-bed to come get my wheel from the ditch.

I heard that the 997's come without a spare. Should I do a spare delete?

Hmmm....

Yah well for sure it will not fit in the frunk. Too much junk

Yep, 987/997 neither one comes with a spare. Just some aerosol goo in a plastic baggie. More room in the frunk for frunking though.

Hmm, I never thought about that before... I think the front tire should fit???

If I read the manual correctly, if you have a rear flat the procedure is to first take off one front tire and replace that with the spare then replace the flat rear with the front.
Some solution Hum?

RPMulli

That's a lot of extra work. Haha.

I love the "frunk", I'll have to use that sometime...

Most newer/higher end cars are coming w/out spares nowadays. My Corvette didn't have one either. I *think* your toolkit may include a bag to wrap the flat tire in, so you can take it inside the car.

Very simple. You put the spare in the car. Just make sure you have a tire tote or garbage bag in your front boot tool kit.

I was in that predicament a while back, I left the wheel somewhere and came back later to get it...

The OE tool roll comes with a large plastic bag to put the tire in, and then into the cabin.
