I'm happy about the full-size spare, it's good for daily driving as well as taking longer road trips as I often do down to New York, Connecticut and Maryland. I don't have to worry about finding a tire store within 50 miles of where I lose a tire and get reamed on price. Plus it looks like it's not THAT high above the floor of the trunk, 3 inches at most, plus since the offset is so high you can always stuff things inside the wheel (looks like I can stuff my backpack in there.) Obviously it would be removed on a track day, you can take it out like one person said and stuff a track tire in the well and then put another on top of that, seems like a good idea.

I will probably get the full size spare and then remove it for autocross.
