Thanks for the info, guys, I appreciate it.

I think I'll have to stop and get some sidewalk chalk and give that a try. I've never done that before, believe it or not. We don't have kids so I have no chalk lying about.... I could wait until a kid in the neighborhood starts chalking the sidewalk and go steal a stick....no wait, scratch that....lol

Like most people, I never really give my spare a thought until needed. When my Jeeps had an external spare on the back, it's real easy to keep an eye on it; it's in your face. My truck still has the factory Bridgestone 245/75/17 spare on it. I may drop and pull it and go get a matching tire. Technically, they're both about the same height, the 245 is just narrower.

I replaced mine. Used the old spare to reacquaint myself with tire plugs and such. Kinda fun stabbing a tire and then fixing it. I’ve acquired a few tire repair kits over the years so have a plethora of tire repair stuff. I DONT have Glue Tread sheets though. May have to remedy that soon.

In all my vehicles, as far back as I can remember, I've always kept an "oh crap" bag. Tools, bulbs, fuses, a decent first aid kit (not an IFAK), 3 road flares that look like sticks of dynamite on every Clint Eastwood spaghetti western and a flat tire repair kit. The Old Skool kind; the reamer, glue, waxed rope and a utility knife. I tried that kit when I was a teen. Knocks the crap out of your hand. But I carried one.

This Jeep ? Haven't put in a flat repair kit yet. Flares will NOT make the roster. I've seen those little self-sealing rubber plugs on Amazon, not sure if I'll give them a go.

But flares are fun……….

Yes. Flares are useful for... reasons.
