My car has no spare tire - now what?
More and more cars ship without a spare, a lot of newer models and nearly every EV come with a sealant kit instead. If the puncture is small and the sidewall is intact, a plug or sealant may hold long enough to reach a shop. If the tire is shredded or the sidewall is gone, sealant won't work and an operator flatbeds you to the nearest tire shop. Tell us your year and model when you call and we'll bring the right plan.
