This is tac welded to the car, so before doing this you need to make sure you don't have any emotional attachments to that doughnut. I simple took a big hammer and beat it out...but you can definitely grind away the tac welds. then simply fill the holes in and ta da! full size spare room

Very impressive Hot Racer. I'm not sure I'd need another wheel, but carrying around a tire would certainly be great. Almost any service station can put on a new tire (after the towing) but almost no station is going to have that size tire.

On the other hand most flat tires are repairable.

The other part of me would take out the tire altogether, drop in an inflation kit, and enjoy the massive additional storage space.

Hidden storage space, at that. In San Francisco these days you have to leave or glove box open and take off the cargo cover or you get a broken window from junkies looking for anything at all to steal.
