I have often wondered the same... I do agree it can't be 20 years. I am fortunate in that I have only ever had to use two spare tires in my life (once on my '86 900S, once on a rental car!) but all the ones I have in my cars are pretty darned ancient. Good enough to sit on in the driveway while a flat is repaired, but I'm not sure I'd trust any of them to drive on. Maybe Pontiac has had the right approach in their sports cars, giving you a can of Fix-a-Flat and an air compressor instead of s spare.
