It was my understanding that the rear tire will not fit into the redesigned front storage area. So if you had a flat, you would have to leave your wheel and tire behind or place it in the passengers lap!
I saw a pic somewhere, where the guy put the rear tire in the back trunk with the trunk left open. Not a good look !
A couple of interesting tidbits on the 987 spare tire, or lack thereof...
The omission of the spare wheel and jack in the 987 has permitted a reduction in weight of around 10 kg/22 lbs. A 17-inch spare wheel with a size of 185/60 is standard equipment on the 987 only in countries where legislation stipulates the provision of a spare wheel (e.g. Brazil, Israel, Saudi Arabia and Virgin Islands). It is stored in the rear luggage compartment.
So write your congressman...
