[QUOTE="FuelEmpire, post: 8825472, member: 680590"] Yeah, it's primarily because I didn't want to surrender a ton of my limited trunk space. Beyond that, the tire that comes with the SLK is a "space saver tire", aka deflated. Most of them didn't come with a pump or jack/tools. I found out mine did after taking it apart but I still don't care much about a spare. But it really comes back to the fact that I'd like to save some space. Oddly enough, my trunk passes through to my cabin via the "rear deck". The SLK stores the roof in the trunk (which also limits space when the top is down). I may have a vibrating flap to worry about, but I'll cross that bridge when I get there. My father in law has been a master carpenter for 40+ years (he's built houses used in movies, etc) and has agreed to help out. There may be an opportunity to port through the back wall, as well. I've heard rumors of it being done. [/QUOTE]
