quick question

Been toying with the idea of selling our Ford Expedition and getting a Paceman. Question is if I get regular all season tires does it come with a spare? Reason is on our trip we are out in the middle of now where 150 miles from help. and if we get a flat we will tear the run flats up by the time we can get it fixed. Wife has a 2011 Clubman with a spare. If I get the Clubman I would buy a spare and put it int the boot and use the net to hold it down if necessary. Thgnks

Tom

no spare to spare...

Hi Tom, unfortunately the Paceman has no spare. I'm not sure, but you might be able to fit a donut under the rear storage area. Keep in mind that they say the run flats are good for 50 miles with no air, but I'd bet you could go a few miles further if you had to.

You can get the tire inflation kit or set a

MINI Tire Mobility Set

Or get one of the steel wheels and mount a all season tire on it. You would have to strap it down in the trunk. Dont think it would fit under the flat load floor.

16 x 6.5 , Et46, 5x120 bolt pattern. Also know as steelies. 36109803650

Thanks and good luck.
