With a Class A unit I prefer carrying a tire only and having a truck tire dealer with a road service truck mount the tire on the rim on the road. That's what most truckers do. My tires weigh 113 lbs and I would hate to wrestle that much weight on a rim into a belly door. AAA trucks don't look like they are capable of doing much more than changing tires on cars and pickups. Having a rim would considerably reduce the cost of a tire change though if we could find a suitable storage area. We have roadside assistance insurance with our primary insurer and we just send them the bill. Fortunately we haven't had that kind of breakdown. (Yet).
