First holiday trip...with emergency wheel or kit?

[Casper]

Hello,

i'm organizing the first summer holiday with my super Rt-10

As you know, Viper's trunk is never enough big for our girlfriends..(no..i don't want put her in the trunk...or not yet..I mean for her luggage)

I thinked to remove emergency wheel and buy a emergency tire repair..

Something about my dilemma?

It doesn't matter because if you are on a trip and you blow the rear tire, where would you put the 13" wide rim? You'd be stuck with luggage sitting on your gf's lap.
Ditch the spare.

As an FYI, the spare tire is part of the rear impact structure during a rear end collision.

yep spare part of the crumble zone DO NOT REMOVE, ditch the girl and find one during the vocation or get a smaller girlfriend figure from here on....just bring less

This is true for RT/10's; not for GTS's but as you have an RT/10 it best to leave the spare in place. If you suffer a flat and your gf has to hold the flat in her lap, you can always get a new gf when she leaves you ;-)
