Ever had a flat?
Reading the manual last night about using the air compressor to inflate this mini tire and wondering if in practice its a PITA or trivial?

It's not that bad unless....
Your air compressor breaks like mine did. I used mine twice. The first time I had a flat tire and it worked fine. I used it a second time and it broke. I was reinflating my tires after deflating them to drive on the beach. I had to drive about 10 miles with 3 tires at 35 psi and the other at 17 psi.
Overall, the tire change kit is well designed. It's better then the knuckle scrapers I've used on other cars.

Once - worked fine.
Chilled for 5 minutes in the parking lot while it inflated. The guys at Discount got a real kick out of the deflatable spare - pretty cool how it shrinks down when you let the air out.
