from the trunk along with the jack. If you replaced them with an electric pump and tire repair goo, how did you mount them in the trunk? I just did this tonight and I am not sure how I am going to keep them from sliding all over the place.

I've got free towing through both my insurance and my dealership and/or my wife could bring the tire to me.

seriously, there are plenty of ways to get by without having to mount a pump in your trunk. Get AAA or call a friend.

Is removing the spare tire really going to save much weight/make a difference in daily driving?

You could get the pump/goo kit that comes with the Shelby 500 and it straps into the spare-tire well properly.

Is there no spare in the GT500?
