still going 120 and dying is worse than being slightly late and going 80. dunno just me. either way i see your point. again removing spare is not for everyone but I gladly do it to every car I own.

Yes 120mph is fast but I was only doing 70mph when traffic opened up and I hit the pedal and in just a few seconds I was going 120mph. (the superchager helps)
The rim is crushed on the inside and will have to be redone. Controling the car was easy and simple. Alos my tires only seem to last about 8weeks before the wires start showing.
I was able to chang my tire in 10 mins with the help of my employee and we even made it on time for the appt. The new customer sighned and was impressed I was able to keep my appt even after a blow out.
