I have the same car, was wondering if you can post a pic to see what it looks like lowered? Thanks!Name:  608062A7-61FE-4F65-9C60-0B87E60E9AFB.jpg

I didn't buy the carry bag/case. Where are you storing the jack and lug wrench? Do they fit in the case?

Yes. They are in the case which is approximately the same size as the tire.

In another thread about the modern spares, some people have stated that they use other hardware and sockets in place of the items that come with the tire. Not the best quality. You might want to test it before needing to use it.

Maybe I will make a video opening the package. I have it in the trunk, but didn’t check the parts...

Where is a good place to pick up a spare tire kit?

I am working on the options to change the spoiler now. Unfortunately, after cracking the side skirt and also finding a small crack on my chin splitter, I am also getting those parts re-ordered. :-)

Right now my intent is to get a new spoiler and rear diffuser if I am going to change the exhaust. I am trying to figure out options for the vert. I think I would need something to run all the way from the headers back. . .have to decide on exhaust so I can decide on diffuser (dual or quad tip).

At the same time, we just finished the tune at 8psi and are about to bump to 10psi...too many things happening.

I believe there are some options to retain the antennae. . .just trying to figure it out. I really don't use AM/FM either...only sometimes for Cardinals baseball (which I think I can get on XM radio too).

New '18 Convertible owner and bear with this question. All that came from the dealer with my '18 2SS convertible was the tow hook and the fuel funnel. No lug wrench, no jack. I didn't expect a spare as they are runflats but is that the normal tool setup from the dealer for convertibles, no jack, no wrench? When I swap out the runflats, I'll be in the market for a inflator/sealer kit as others have described... Already have AAA but just checking to make sure I'm not missing anything... Thanks in advance...

Nope, no jack or wrench. I keep a torque wrench and a socket under the floor, along with the key socket for the Gorilla lug nuts. I only put the jack in the trunk when I'm going out of town. I also have an air pump and plug kit.
