Default No spare tire

You know when I got my Gulfstream Sunvoyager I also worried about not having a spare tire. But then I began to think about it. torque on the wheels are over 400 lbs, no way can I handle that, The 22 inch tire and wheel must weigh over 100 lbs, I can't handle that either . Then I am retired, If I have to wait a few days for a tire to be delivered somewhere, no big deal. Also no where to carry it on my Rig. I looked into a add on spare tire carrier and with buying the carrier , tire and wheel it would have cost me about $700.00. Also If you carry that spare tire around for a few years it probably won't be any good anyway.
Just my opinion, forget the spare tire and wheel. Get a good Road Service.
