My Bullitt did not come with a spare, but I bought a pair of 17 in drag radials and use one as a spare. Although it takes up the whole trunk, it came in handy last month when I drove over a piece of rebar with a rear tire. Major hole and totalled the tire. Even though I had to put the spare on the front and the front of the rear, it was worth having! A simple thirty minute jacking and wrenching session was much easier than a tow. Tires had 65000 miles so they did hold up.
