What's in your spare tire well?
For those that have upgraded to aftermarket wheels/tires, what do you carry as a spare, should you need one?

I either carry a Supra TT front wheel or a Supra TT space saver spare, depending on the distance I'm driving (or what was left in there from the last time I changed them out).

I have an RX300 and I didn't give this much thought till I put 18's on it. Now I'm going to add a 5th 18" wheel just like the rest w/ tire as my spare. For now it's the original 16" wheel and tire.
I like the idea of putting some amps in there though. Man the Nakamichi system in the RX300 needs some sack!

I've got my factory 205/65-15 spare in my ES, it's within 1/10 of a percent of my 215/50-17 setup. I figure if cars can get away with those tiny "baby spares", I can get away with a spare that's a tiny bit off from my current setup.

Spare
Since I have the front big brakes my spare is pretty much useless in the front. I am shopping around for an after market 18" wheel with a +36 offset. I figure if I get a flat "knock on wood" I will call 1-800-Lexus for now.
