Compact Space Saver Tire/Wheel Solution
I'm not sure, but I don't think you can even fit a full size spare into a non-D frunk. I believe someone was able to find a compact spare for another brand of car (BMW?) that fits the Tesla and fits in the frunk. You'd also need some sort of jack and wrench and find a way to fasten it all down so it doesn't rattle around.
What if someone kept an uninflated tire, and an air compressor?
It would be much easier to fit your AAA card in the frunk.
Kidding aside, I haven't carried a spare tire in my S2000 for the 15 years I've owned it, and I had exactly 1 flat tire. I'd rather not waste the storage space for a spare.
I have a full size 19" spare in my pre-autopilot S85 frunk.

Interesting. I could probably throw one of my 19" winter tires (on its own rim) in there... Probably won't, but it might be good "road trip" insurance.
Hello guys,
Can you please help me find any lat flat tire for S90D? Any suggestions? I'd like to keep a spare in the Frunk. Thanks.
I have a full size, Tesla supplied, wheel and tyre fully inflated in my frunk. I also keep a breaker bar, torque wrench, floor Jack, and a set of wedges I made out of timber in there. The wheel is upside down which leaves me with a centre well in which to store the jack and wrench. The rest fits around it and in the microwave. Obviously a non D car.I'm not sure, but I don't think you can even fit a full size spare into a non-D frunk.

Someone in this thread or elsewhere was suggesting that Australia requires that manufacturers provide a spare tire. Is this the case, and when you say Tesla supplied the tire, did they do so as part of the vehicle purchase?
I've had relatively few roadside flats too, but when I did, I could call Roadside Assistance and they would come, change the tire and I may be an hour or so late for work. If I had to have the car flat-bedded to a tire shop or Tesla, I could easily lose the day dealing with a measly flat tire.
How do they charge for this, out of curiosity? I know roadside assistance is free (In the beginning) but what about the tire itself? And/or can they plug it roadside?
