- how often do you get a flat tyre where you need to drive at highway speeds (100kmh) where a temp spare restricts you to 80 kmh? The impact would be most felt if doing a long trip, say interstate or part of the lap of our good land. But then only to the next major city/town.
- a spare that is not the same size or tread pattern as the 4 boots on the car, in any case, theoretically should restrict your performance anyway
- how much boot space do you loose with a full size spare (width) compared to the temporary spare?
Best wishes in making your decision and happy motoring.
