Great looking rig, definitely an effective "all-a-rounder". I've done several multi-day trips in the backcountry of Colorado. One thing I did was invest in a tire plug kit and on board air (OBA). With your ARB, you already have the air source. This allowed me to get a puncture flat, fix it, and keep the spare on the rack. After getting pretty good at patching tires, I never made the transition to carrying two spares.

ARshaneH, I had a plug kit with me but the puncture was over an inch wide.

Do you have a special type of plug or technique to seal the large punctures?
