I picked up a 986 spare for our 987 last year and carry it in the front when we take long trip or do DEs.

The OD is off relative to the other tires so this would be just a temp fix if a tire goes bad in an out of the way place.

I'd recommend the trunk inner shield to go with it --can't think of the name--that protects the trunk lid underside from damage from cargo hitting the inside of the trunk lid if you hit a bump.

It ran about $150 for the whole tire kit which included the tire/jack and tools.

Some may feel it's not needed but I like the idea of a little insurance if things go bad and you're in a spot far from help or even cellphone coverage.
