2020 Nissan Kicks

If gamitin for long drive, must talaga yung spare tire.
But if city driving lang for coding purpose, I think madali lang naman makapunta sa suking gasoline station to have the punctured tire fixed.
The included air compressor should help.
.

having experienced the spectrum of flat tyres,
from slow leak that takes days to weeks to notice, to medium leaks that take only an hour or two to noticeably deflate,
to catastrophic punit ang gulong at humiwalay na yung tyre bead sa rim,
kahit nasa susunod na kanto lang ang gas station,
driving without a spare tyre is a bad idea.
one never knows when the sudden, un-inflate-able flat is gonna hit you.

but yes,
the car's tyre fix-it kit + inflator are still there, naman, for the usual type of flat tyre...

my take.

Go to a bullbar fabricator and have them make a tow-hitch style spare-tire carrier.

hassle magbukas ng rear hatch...
i do it at least four times a day, que araw, que ulan.

Tell the shop what you want and I'm sure they'll find a way.

Here you go, show them this and they'll probably do it better.

I remember when NLEX was newly fixed. me and my dad decided to take our FX for a ride (Manila to Dau and back)... no checking of tires... front right blew near San Fernando, spare tire blew before we reached Dau. Had to buy 2 new tires at Tarlac - but those were tires with tubes. Tubeless tires tend to loose pressure slowly, not unless its a really big nail.

sa for vulcanizing your own tire... riders normally can do it. have you seen an Ironman participant with a spare tire
bikers even replace their own inner tubes and use manual pumps.

there's always a reason to complain about something.

I didn't like the fact that the Kicks' ADAS is not as equipped as the competition.
But i'd rather have a car I can drive everyday (hybrid) that have a car with a spare tire that I can only use 6X a week.
