CODE: SGC - Spare Tire Extra? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

eggydoo · 11-17-2008, 10:59 PM

My order sheet shows code SGC spare tire not desired.
Wouldn't you assume that would be included?

I guess i'll be calling the dealer tomorrow to ask, but does anyone else have the same thing on their order?

the spare tire is not standard. it has a tire inflator with goop instead

A lot of cars nowadays are not coming with spares..

Considering that 90% of daily travel is within city limits for most of america.. it makes sense to save the weight (and thus up the MPG).

That is what I pay my insurance for .. 1 call and less than 30 mins later i have a tow truck taking my baby to a tire shop.. for free. Cost of service... $5.00 every 6 months

Or you can change your tire for free in 10 minutes and be on your way

. Just my preference though.

The first thing that came out of my fourth gen was it's tire and jack. Been years and years and I've never missed it.

Also spare tires are going to be on constraint for the LT's

Very common now to have run-flats and/or inflator. Saves weight, space, and cost. But you can get one if you desire.

I read that a regular spare would not fit over the brembos anyway (Don't know if that is true or not)...
