spare tire

Has anyone lowered their car and kept the spare tire? I don't think the jack would fit under the car if i got a flat... so why would i keep the tire? I'm thinking about taking it out tomorrow and getting AAA or something. I've got to work on my car anyways.

good luck finding the rite tow truck if your car is ultra low. after I crashed my car they had to get a guy that hulls around ferraris to tow my car. he had a special bed that i could get my car up on. I didnt pay insurence company did ahhh the love.

I have a full size spare with my car lowered. Also I would leave something in there, yea it is good to have AAA, but you have to wait for them to come and sometimes it takes awhile. Having the tire in there will get you on your way faster.
