Hi, my wife and I are going to be driving to FL in late October and because we'll be on a bit of a tight schedule, I'm wondering if anyone has a spare tire I could rent for the week? I'm willing to pick it up. Also looking for a jack and tire iron to go with it. I have the jackpoint pucks. I have the 19" Gemini wheels on my car.

Thanks in advance.

I have 20" wheels.  I have a modern spare but that it is supposed to be good for 19 or 20.  I have the entire kit so yes to jack.  I think the jack crank doubles as a tire iron.  But if not I probably have an old one of the cross bar things that has 3 sockets and the 4rth arm being a wedge to pry off wheel covers.  No idea whether tesla nuts are one of the 3.   I'm in hillsbough so probably 30-45 minutes away.

Modern Spare claims you don't need pucks with their jack.  I have not used the spare so I can't provide personal experience.  I can tell you it fits nicely between the passenger front and folded down rear seats once I remove the rear headrest.  That's how i carry it.

Hi, Bill.... I appreciate the offer of the loan, but turns out I am not going to have the room for the spare tire.... Going to have a car full for the first half of my trip.

Thx, Dan
