Since many new cars have the “run flat” tires to save on weight, I found out they are only good for 30,000 miles. I dumped them for 80,000 mile Michelin tires with a smoother ride. Kept one of the cheap tires, bought a used rim and special lug wrench and a Jack just in case. Local travel without a spare not a big issue, but going on a trip would be without a spare.
