maybe we dont need a spare tire ? only older corvettes i owned had spare tires [1967/1985] ! all c5 corvettes had runflats, except [ 2002>2004] zo6 had air pump in rear trunk. all newer c/6 corvettes, including zo6/zr1 have runflats..the other day when searching for stock size tires for my 2008 ss impala on tirerack, asked if i wanted runflats ? of course runflats maybe more expensive ? but they will get you home !! has anyone looked into this option ? are they available ? rkvette

I will also be looking into this, since my wife is driving it, don't feel like wrecking a tire or a wheel.

None have spares.

Those who purchased vehicles probably bought second hand cars where the previous owner purchased a 16" spare from a non GXP or another vehicle.

I don't think its a aftermarket addition, there's a molded rack for the tire iron/ jack and all the tiedowns welded to keep it in place....
