What should i do about a Spare on a Staggered X ?

I have it 04 G35x and Im looking to pick up a set of staggered wheels tomorrow. In the event that i catch a flat bend a rim etc etc etc what should i do about a spare ? I know the x has to be within a certain rolling diameter so the AWD isn't ruined. Will i be fine with the 215/55/17 spare or should i get 2 extra wheels just in case ?

Just make sure the rolling diameter of the spare is the same as the tire/wheel combo on your car and you'll be good to go.
