Ease Of Use

Changing a flat tire is now quick and easy thanks to the purpose-built tools included in every spare tire kit. Our goal is to get you back on the road.

Why Is My Car Missing A Spare Tire?

The Modern Spare Advantage

Few things are as stressful as a flat tire. Especially as you’re traveling along a remote and desolate highway. Not a great time to discover a spare tire is nowhere to be found in your new car. Surprisingly, more than ⅓ of all car models sold today, are not equipped with that little lifesaver. 

So, why are so many car manufacturers not providing a spare tire?
Car manufacturers are finding new ways to reduce weight and reduce costs. Removing the spare is simply one way to accomplish this. Of course, this requires reliance on spare tire alternatives. Unfortunately, the common alternatives you’re left with are barely adequate at best.

What "Solutions" are carmakers leaving you with?

INFLATOR KITS

Inflator kits have become the go-to replacement for spare tires, but they fall short in real emergencies. They’re only effective for simple, nail-type punctures through the tire tread, not for sidewall damage or blowouts caused by potholes or curb strikes. Plus, the sealant in these kits can damage tire-pressure monitoring systems, costing you $300–$400 per sensor to replace.

Modern Spare offers a better solution. Our spare tire kits are specifically engineered for your vehicle, providing reliable backup when inflator kits can’t. We have kits for GM, Dodge/Chrysler, all Tesla models, and more with new makes and models added regularly.

ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE

AAA and other roadside assistance services provide peace of mind for many drivers, but they aren’t a true spare tire solution. Without a proper spare, most breakdowns end in a tow. For low-profile or high-performance cars, towing can risk further damage.

Plus, AAA typically takes you to the nearest service station—not necessarily one that stocks the specialty tire your vehicle needs. If you’re traveling, that could mean a hotel stay while waiting for a replacement tire to arrive. And if you’re stranded in an area with no cell service, you’re left with few options. Avoid the hassle and expense. Modern Spare offers spare tire kits engineered to fit your vehicle perfectly, providing reliable backup when roadside assistance can’t.

THE MODERN SPARE SOLUTION

Our spare tire kit offers unmatched convenience, reliability, and cost-effectiveness. Engineered with a lightweight yet ultra-strong aluminum alloy wheel, each kit is specifically designed for your vehicle’s needs.

We go beyond just the tire. Our complete kits include a ratcheting vehicle jack, extendable breaker-bar lug wrench, and a reinforced carrying case for vehicles without dedicated storage. Our spare tire is built to go the extra mile, allowing for longer distances than traditional spares from carmakers. Get back on the road with confidence.

Spare Tire Kits for Tesla, Camaro, BMW, Corvette, Buick, Pontiac, Dodge, Chrysler, & Cadillac.

“I received my full kit yesterday. The shipment was timely and well-packaged. I was pleasantly surprised at the very high quality of everything in the full kit. Even the wheel was better than some of those steel replacements you can buy. The storage case is heavy-duty and pleasant to look at. I am ready if I hit adversity on a long trip. Nice job, guys.”

"I can’t believe my car didn’t come with a spare. I got a flat and it took about 4 hours to get me back on the road (I had gashed the tire there’s no way the factory fix a flat would have worked) So, the dealer would have cost about twice Modern Spares cost and it would have been a crappy little spare. Thanks Modern Spare"

Has the global trade uncertainty affected Modern Spare in terms of inventory and price increases?

Yes and no –

Since our humble beginnings in 2016, relying on single manufacturing partners—and more so, partners in some countries that are vulnerable to trade conflict—is something we have avoided. This has proven effective over the years, and we hope it will help us navigate what may come in 2025.

We don’t anticipate significant price increases, if any, in the coming months. The real challenge may be disruptions in global shipping later in 2025 that delay shipments and put strain on inventories.

Thankfully, we’re well stocked now, and most new orders are being shipped out immediately.

Consider this:

If you are thinking of purchasing a spare tire, now may be a good time—just in case the supply disruptions cause delays or lengthy inventory issues.

If you have questions on this or need help selecting the right kit, our spare tire experts are available by phone or email.

Thank you,
