2018 S560 Trunk
Hello all,
I appreciate any advice.
I recently purchased a used 2018 S560. Two questions.
1. Inside the trunk there are no tools, just the tow bar. No spare, jack or wrench. I understand there are run flat tires but no wrench? Is it shipped from the factory like this or did someone remove them?
2. Does anyone know where I can purchase an aftermarket rear deck spoiler for this vehicle? I can paint it so color does not matter.
Thank you for reading.

Agree with Chassis here - why would a jack and any other tire tools be needed if there is no possible way of changing a tire roadside? Shipped from the factory like that.
On the run flats, depending on the car (car's performance capabilities) run flats can be a hinderance. Also depends on how you drive the car. If your S560 gets the groceries, take you to nice restaurants and/or to/from work, maybe, the run flats are usually OK. But be careful if you're thinking of spirited driving. Run flats have very ridged, unforgiving sidewalls, they can be bad if you're trying to pull that 3/4G curve at speed.
Older Corvettes (C5, C6, C7) were shipped with run flats. First thing that had to come off if you really drove the car. Just took the chances I'd have to abandon the car on the side of the road with a flat on a real tire.
