No i will not remove it....i had the unfortunate time of having to use it over the weekend.. AS much as it sucks i am glad i had it..but i am looking at trying to replace it with a full size spare. This car does not drive well at all with the spare on it. It kinda feels like you are on ice

I'm removing it, if u get a flat call ur parents to get it, $60 road service with spare... U probably get $60 in fuel savings in a year of driving

And also why the f*ck you decided to resurrect a thread that hasn't seen any activity in almost a year and a half.

people b!tch if you start new threads, people b!tch if you post in old threads. Might as well just shut it down.

what's your point? This is a forum. a place for people to discuss stuff. I get the annoyance of having duplicate posts of the same old repeat questions about "which exhaust sounds best?" and "what oil are people using?", but what's wrong with posting in an old thread?

DeeezNuuuts83 · 04-17-2015, 02:16 PM

Because those are at least somewhat relevant questions to ask, even though they've been asked and answered time and time again. The thread bumper wasn't even asking a question, just throwing in his two cents and telling us that his parents still wipe his ass for him

its more like 30lbs 1.1% of curb weight with the jacks and stuff. According to AAA 60% men have a flat in the past 5 years, cheapest tire replacement is $30 and fix a flat is $10, so you can do the math.

I think you're taking my post a bit too seriously. You realize that to find a thread that is this old, he either had to specifically go looking for it or page back quite a ways before he found it.

Also, lets face it, the discussion in this thread isn't exactly worthy of bringing up again after a year and a half on inactivity, hence my post.
