Can I carry a tire without wheel just in case of a blown tire on the road?

It won't do you much good, as you would then need to take the bad tire off of the rim, and reinstall the good tire onto the rim.
If you carry a fully mounted tire and rim, then you only need to remove bad tire/rim, and install the good tire rim.
To do all that, you need a jack, lug wrench, and maybe a couple of blocks of wood to use as chocks.
Another option, as long as the leak is not a huge hole in the tire... try the onboard tire kit, it has sealant and a pump to air
up the bad tire. I would also recommend a can of flat fix, or something similar... to use incase the OEM tire kit does not work.
Cheers!

I currently have my original rim and tire set at the bottom of one of her closets. She threatens to wash my Smart with some lighter fluid and a match if the are still there this spring. So I couldn't horde another set.. Of course I could buy them and leave them in the bottom of one of his closets as this is all his fault anyway in spite of that pitiful disclaimer. Then all I have to do is find a couple of pristine Smarts with no wheels .... Hmmmmmmmmm.
..and why pass up a beautiful drive the NH.
Would you like to sell your original wheel set? Then you could buy these.

These are my original wheels with 195/50 15 up front 195/60 15 in the rear. They have just been hard to find them inexpensive and to repair the few bends the have is just as expensive so I have been hording them. My Son gave me an idea this weekend to Carbon Fiber Wrap them. I could entertain that. If not for my current car, as I think I have designed the Harlem Edition away from these Wheels, I can see a Smart Build with these wheels as the starting point. So very torn on selling them.

Made up your mind???, I could be interested,,, I purchased a car2go with not only 4 different size tires but also 4 different make of tires and 2 had cracked sidewalls on them. 3 rims silver and 1 rim graphic peeling paint with black primer. They would look really good on my wife's car. ( I just get to fix and repair it )
