This all-inclusive kit comes with a spare tire, storage bag, scissor jack, and rim wrench. A handy accessory, ideal for road trips.
Install and drive with caution, intended for short distances at low speeds. Fits all 2006-2012 Cayman models. Not compatible with the Ceramic Brake System.


Their spare tire kit is not cheap: $1,095.00

Are they F***ing high?! $1100 to add a spare tire? You could do it much cheaper with Harbor Freight straps and a 986 wheel. GEEZ!

It's not only the spare wheel that the post 986/996 guys want. They want the jack and tool kit too. I use to have tons of tires, tool kits and jacks in stock before I started selling them on eBay for $250 a set. I sold 10 complete sets in a month. Now the only kits I have are the ones I haven't listed yet.
