Roadside assistance will only give you a tow. They don't have a spare tire to put on. Good luck finding someplace to fix a flat or mount a new tire after 5-6 PM.


So once every 20 years I am worrying about renting a car or going get my other car?

The last 'flat tire' event I dealt with was my wife blew out two run flats and didn't want to drive to the next exit. Tow truck made it before I did.

I go to a "Pull It Yourself" junkyard and buy a tire off of a wrecked vehicle that matches mine. The rims are matching also. They charge $25 for a steel wheel, with tire, and $35 for an aluminum one. I them Armorall it and put it in the spare tire compartment.
