It's been discussed numerous times since Porsche ceased including a spare tire with their cars, what to use, where to put it, where to put the flat tire, etc. I carried a Boxster spacesaver spare in my 987 CS and my 981 GTS but alas, it is too small for my new 718 GTS 4.0, so its now languishing in the garage. But I recently came across a place that sells spares for the newer cars that will fit the 20" wheels of some of our cars. https://ezsparewheel.com/ is the website, they sell spares for lots of brands, but among them are Porsche. I have no affiliation, financial interest, etc. whatsoever, just thought I'd pass along this source. And the prices are not unreasonable at all, especially compared to the offerings from Suncoast and others. Now as to where to store the flat tire, can't help you much on that, just don't carry a passenger so it can ride beside you in a garbage bag or tire storage bag. My old spare pictured for reference only.
