I don't even carry my spare tire on a daily basis. I keep a 12v pump and tire plugs under the seat.
I'll throw the spare into the bed when I'm headed to the woods for a few days just for added peace of mind.
Clown move on my part too. Upgraded my tires to bfg all terrain ko2s 265 65 r18. Now I need an 18” wheel to mount this extra tire on. Luckily I can source wheels cheaply from work.
