Hi,
You bring up a very good point, and not just for 987 owners. For 986 Owners, the Rear Wheel will not fit if it's 18" either.
A couple of solutions: Carry a Bunge Cord so you can put the Wheel in the Boot and secure the lid just so you can get it home. If you're traveling with luggage, maybe not possitble. In this case, carry one of theose Monster Bike locks so you can secure the Wheel to a post or tree and return for it later.
Even with these difficulties, I still prefer having the Spare...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
