Thanks for the great answers all.

Trying to build a small as possible pile of useful stuff to carry in the car, particularly on longer trips (which I haven't been able to do yet).

As far as the plugs, I was also thinking that the plugs themselves might be nearly impossible to get in the tires on the M2 because of the lack of jack and tire/fender clearance. You need to get a tool in there, and you would have to roll the car around a lot to get to a small open area between the fender and the ground to get the plug tool into.

And that is if you are "lucky" enough to get a nail right in the middle of the tread.

I've just never had a car without a jack and spare before, so probably more nervous than I should be about it. My Infiniti Q60 had a spare, but also had no trunk space (a big selling point on the M2), and I never used the spare on the Q60 (although I did use a portable air compressor to get me to a tire place), so I'm willing to accept that compromise.
