I've been carrying two spare wheels ever since I started off-roading 20 years or so ago. My type of off-roading is mostly touring. The reason for carrying two spares is, majority of the time it is just me and the Mrs, so having two gave me that peace of mind. Have to admit, up to now, only once have I needed to use both spares. I run Mickey Thompson Degan 38 muddies. These are pretty robust in construction with strong sidewalls.
In addition to the spares, I carry the usual puncture repair kit, a spare tube (in case the puncture plug does not work), compressor, etc.
I am now considering carrying only one spare. Feel the second is unnecessary dead weight.
What are your thoughts?
How many spares do you carry?
In comparison to the amount of travelling, you have done how many times have you needed two spares?
