Some Cars No Longer Have Spare Tires??? WTF??

 CR explains why tire sealant kits are becoming more common and shares tips on how to prepare for a flat tire


So. You buy a new car for a hundred grand. You're driving around the neighborhood showing it off.

You pickup a nail some jackhole left laying in the road after fixing somebody's house.

Now you got a flat. No problem. You changed a tire when you were 12 years old cause your dad showed you how.

OOPS! There's no effing spare!!! NOW whaddu I do???

I guess now you break out the fudging tire sealant kit and stop the leak.

But what if you get a big ass hole in the sidewall? Now What??
Well now you gotta call a tow truck. For a piddly ass flat tire.

  1. Or a blowout along on the Expressway, destroying the tire. No spare tire AT ALL ?

  2. Good luck with your TPMS sensor, wheel balance, or even getting it out of the can if your winters are like here, was -12° this morning.

    Had to beat the crap out of my truck starter yesterday leaving work, it was -20° when I got to work and -8° laying in the snow dishing out percussive maintenance with a 2 5/16" hitch.
