removing the spare wheel tray - pros & cons?
will removing it quicken the process rust on the boot floor as i see it as a form of protection for the floor of the boot?
might seem a silly question but it's bugging me

the tyre fitter that repairs that puncture after you have put that goo in it wont like you too much..its a slut to get off! and a patch of it will need to be cleaned off if a puncture repair is to be put in and stick properly..and itll make a mess as it sticks to the rim inside...

personally id leave the spare on...but thats just me.

ive heard that them repair cans make the tyre unrepairable once youve put it in them, it was a bmw tech that told me that too and next to none of there cars have a spair wheel!!

i personally wouldnt risk it, especially when i buy my F1's,
