How do Roadster owners handle no spare tire issue?

 

the same way the coupe guys do there are no spare tire on the crossfire,,,,,,,,,,,,you would have to have two one for the front 25.1" tall and one for the rear 26" tall in the trunk if the car still has it you have a jack a air pump, a goop canister that will cost a lot of money when u use it as it screws up your tire pressure monitor and u have to buy a new one and that is not easy to find.
so the best thing to do is don't have a flat.

 

Make sure you know how to use & place the jack, your air compressor is working and have a tubeless tire repair kit such as this link below , also have good tires, I have driven my car for going on 6 years and 23,000 miles with no flats. Not saying it can't happen but I can't justify having a spare with those numbers and I have way to fix it if I do. Pizza guy made me think " yeah why don't motorcycles have spares ? If it's good enough for a motorcycle , it's good enough for a Crossfire


cheaper models are available and a wheel hanger pictured below also at amazon ---

 

Same way I do on my bike. Used this kit twice in thirteen years and over 100,000 miles of Roadster ownership.

 

Moved to appropriate forum. This is not an "introduction" thread, please post in appropriate forum area.

 

That's a very good kit but you have to check it from to time, the rubber cement hardens or starts to leak. Either buy a new kit or more rubber cement.

 

I usually just buy a new kit each year as my season begins

 

I usually also carry an inner tube. Hard part is finding a big enough inner tube with a T-13 stem. T-15 is too big.

 

When you fit an inner tube you might as well fit a puncture repair patch from the inside.

 

If the sidewall is punctured, only a tube will work.

 

How would you break the tire away from the rim to insert a inner tube ?

 

Use the bumper jack. Top on car (or solid object), base on tire, and jack.

 

Not enough room under the car and if you jack it up to remove the flat, your jack will be holding the car up.

 

In addition have a small scissors jack. Solid object will also work.
