Not all of them. C5 Z06's came with "normal" tires and a pump & fix-a-flat goop.

First thing I did was buy an SS spare kit.

My car sticker said it had air pump & sealant, but when I looked, there was a tire & tools in trunk. Good dealership!

There are a few spare tire kits on ebay right now. If you want to shell out over $400 bucks for a space saver spare and a flimsy jack!
For that price I could pay someone to carry me to the next town if I get a flat. |

I used the tire sealant and the tire shop had no issues cleaning and patching my tire.

Had a flat on the road
Called OnStar. Had a guy with a flatbed to me in about 1/2 hour. Took it to a tire shop who fixed the flat and that was that. Not good, but not too bad.
HOWEVER, every time I go on a road trip I worry a little bit about it. Maybe a dumb question but I'll ask anyway, don't you need two spares, front and rear? Also, we are in good company. Look at most of the exotics, or even Porches. None of them have spares. BTW. my flat was on the Richmond/San Rafael, bridge, no place to pull over. Had to drive about a mile on the bridge watching the tire pressure indicator show less and less pressure. First pull off was for San Quentin prison, so that's where I was.

What about my 1LE
Quote:
So if I buy the standard stamped steel metal rim, with the full size tire I can then put it on the front or back of my 1LE and it will fit in the spare tire well? If not then what do I need? Jim |
