I think I might remove me spare too, since it is so heavy at 15kg.

But what distance can a punctured tyre be driven after using tyre sealeant to temporary pump it up.

i guess i hv to agree with u too.
coz after remove it, it shld help us to save more fuel.

unless we travel long distance, then we need the spare tyres.

but hard to know when the tyre will puncit.

regards.

Is sealant effective? How much is that? Thinking of removing my spare tire as well.

Hmmm....I wonder if it is a law in singapore to have a spare tyres....at least in europe...it is an offence to drive without a spare tyre.....as for the smaller spare tyre size....it is ok if they are smaller than the rest of ur wheels....it is mean for u to travel a short distance at a relative slow speed to the nearest workshop to have ur punctured tyre repaired... ;)

Dont' think Singapore got such laws... If I am not wrong, cannot change tires in Tunnel also. Europe not only spare tire. Must have first aid kit and I think a tool kit also.
