Spare tire size

CR just published tests of tire sealants:

No most of them donā€™t. Unless Iā€™m mistaken, only BMW still offers them on new cars. I think Honda stopped them around 2009 or 2010, and good riddance! Tthey need a special wheel to run, they donā€™t last nearly as long as regular tires, are more expensive to purchase and repairā€¦They wonā€™t help if the sidewall or outer edge of the tread blows out. Iā€™m glad to still have a spare under my trunk instead of those awful run flatsā€¦

I was disappointed they didnā€™t mention manual pumps. I worry about running down the battery.
