Modern Spare for Mach-E GT: Will it fit in frunk if deflated?

[JonathanEzor]

I would love to get a Modern Spare for my GT, but I don't want to keep it anywhere in the main cabin (including in the rear storage area). I was wondering if it would fit in the frunk if fully deflated. If so, I can store it there and, if/when I need it, I can use the car's compressor to return it to pressure.

Does anyone know the answer to this? Has anyone tried it? Thanks. {Jonathan}

It's not foldable. It's a tire. It will take A LOT a real estate in the trunk. We have one in each of the cars. Deflating it would not save space and would cause frustration to inflate. Especially if you're in the rain or something.

I've seen quite a few threads on spare tires on this forum. I don't think there's any way you can elegantly fit it in the frunk or the bottom part of the trunk.

What the general consensus seems to be is that if you are traveling within 100 miles of home, leave it at home. If you are taking a road trip then bring it with you and just throw it in the trunk. This is because most insurance will cover a tow/repair within the 100 miles.

Thanks. That had been my plan, except my wife *really* does not like the smell of rubber or the idea of a tire in the cabin with us, regardless of how useful it would be. Ah well, I'll save money on the spare, keep a patch kit in the car, and hope for the best. {Jonathan}
