Spare Tire Questions

[JP]

AAA is the answer. I have been super impressed with them. Not just for flats...but discounts, unlocks, towing, travel material, travel protection and other services. I have Premier for the wife and I. With discounts I get at a variety of places, I typically net zero or close to it on the dues. Oh, and one other thing. If you are traveling with a buddy in their car and they get a flat...you guessed it...AAA has your back.

As always, your mileage may vary...

AAA always seems to pay for itself with the numbers of tows and jumpstarts I've needed.

From reading as much Elio info that I can, it will come with one of the fix-a-flat products to get you where you need to go till it can get fixed.

Will the ELio have a spare tire or a contingency plan?

I received an email from Elio concerning the spare tire. Although a spare tire will not be included for the vehicle a spare tire kit will be optional.

Spare tire kit? How does that work?

I was thinking about getting the trailer hitch option, and then fan up a bracket to put a spare on.. if I can keep it below the taillight. Yes, I realize I'll have to mount the lic. plate on it (light too), but with my luck with flats it would be worth it.

You're welcome to have my spare tire, but you'd have to pay for the surgeon.

Only problem with that is that the front and back tires are supposed to be different
