    Well I guess I am screwed. I ditched the run rocks and jack a longtime ago and do not carry a spare.

    I just check my tires on a regular basis, and don't run over stuff. If I have a blow out I have my Visa card and a cell phone. 5 years running no issues.

    I do not like plugging tires either because it messes up the balance.
