Yes, I carry have carried a spare wheel since 2008 and never used it. I bought a new one with the last set of new tires. I did practise putting it on the front but have never tested myself changing a rear one. We often travel and camp in remote areas.

I've needed a spare on other vehicles a few times in my life, most notably while driving to Yellowknife. Twice had a blowout on our popup. The second time both wheels were dead (at Lake Louise), resulting in a trip to Calgary and back with new wheels. The simultaneous failures were probably due to a tire shop selling me tires with insufficient weight rating.
