Where do the spare wheels go on these cars? Underneath?

If so - how do they go on?



Asking on behalf of someone at work.

They dont have a spare at all. Run flat tyres so all you get is some of that stuff in a tube. Not even a jack or wheel brace.

I asked this question to my friend as he drives a mini. His answer was..

They come with run flats (no spare or anything).

If you dont have run flats you get that crap in a tube to fix your wheel, still dont get a spare.
