Just bought one last week. It does count as tongue weight, but a 10k hitch even reduced to 5k by adding this extension is not an issue. As for the actual spare, I have no intention of buying a new tire, a used wheel and a used, but inspected take-off tire is my plan, wheel and tire run about $150-200. Should I have a flat, I'll be able to change it or ERS can, but I'll not be at the mercy of a $1000+ tire of questionable heritage. I'll be able to get to a dealer where a new tire can be had or ordered thru the Advantage program. As for wrestling it into place I will carry an extension to the handle and if needs be make up an alternate attachment point.
