Tire inflator and sealant kit will be standard on all 2018 Mustangs and it looks like Ford is encouraging their dealers to position it as a spare tire replacement for all non sidewall punctures.

Never have been a fan of fix a flat.
I have the full size spare because of my commute, but the full size spare option for the 2018s is outrageous.

Doesn't that stuff ruin the TPMS sensor? Which run like $50? Same price as just towing it to nearest tire shop and getting it patched.

Is the spare kit the same as the 15-17? if so I might order directly from Ford and save myself money over the $400+

If you got the spare wheel and tire on the 15-17 Mustang it was $255 but for some resound on the 18MY it now $405 that's a big freaking jump :confused:

I ordered the spare wheel and tire for my 2016. I've never liked the fix a flat idea either. The S550 provides space for the spare tire without taking away trunk space, so why not order it? Yeah, it adds a few extra pounds. But I'd rather have a spare tire in the trunk than a can of goo.

It's standard on 2015-2017. I decided to order a spare anyway. Comes in handy for tire rotation.

if you don't get the reference, sorry...it seems like a lot of questions and posts keep recycling, the punchline is, the spare kit doesn't work with Performance pack....:frusty:

It works fine, just can only use on rear tires and if flat is in front, swap a rear to the front and the spare is used in rear :D

Is it confirmed that you can temporarily swap front/rear on PP? Size wise should be fine,but then there's wheel offset....
