To Spare or Not to Spare?

Solid spare tyre? Really? I've seen T-spares which are skinny and need higher than normal inflation pressures, but I've never come across solid spare tyres. No valve stems?

You mean one piece of solid rubber? THis I've got to see to believe, must be heavy. Always thought only aeroplane use solid rubber tyres.

Furthermore, the shop uses air wrench to tighten those wheels, you'll be half dead after loosening one screw..... haha....

Actually, I change flat only takes just slightly more than 10 mins. Other reason is because with my full size Toyo, I can go about my normal schedule until I happy then go get my punctured tire fixed. The "fix-flats" have a range and speed limit. The one kena knock by drunk is really nothing left to say. But so far, so heng for me. Had to deploy triangle once on benjamin shears bridge to help car infront of me but touch wood still ok.

I guess in Singapore it is up to personal comfort levels because help is so close by. Alot of people call tow trucks or AA anyway. However, those going to MY better beware.
