keep it, its not that much extra weight and the one time you do end up needing it you'll be kicking yourself for removing it.

Yes, if for no other reason than "Piece of mind!"

keep it.. where I live there are nasty potholes everywhere.. You hit one of those and you can break the seal on your rim and then you would be wishing it was in there.

DEF keep it, I never thought I'd need it, then again I never thought a tow truck driver would try to use a katana sword to take my wheel lugnut cover off either....but both happened on the same day.

Whoa, that set up is the ****!
Anyways, I ditched mine to offset the weight of my sub+amp
I dont travel out of town and keep my G off of the highway as much as possible.
Plus, I live 0.8 miles from work. (which is a infiniti dealer)
