I heard it's not good to put the donut in front because you're a front wheel drive vehicle. It's just not gonna accelerate correctly with a small little donut. We need real full sized spares...

That would be really nice, those donuts suck butt! BUT! with increased size, you increase weight and room to store it. How many cars out there(late models), have FULL SIZED spares and no donuts? Not trucks or jeeps, CARS! I dont think its gonna happen folks, at least not for an Accord, i could see it happening to a full sized sedan thats has alot more power and is bigger than an ark.

Yeah, I totally agree. But in the long run, you can have a 5-tire rotation with a full sized spare and a lot more benefits. I believe we can enlarge the well and still fit a full spare (it's not too far from the donut) and still not bother with moving the exhaust or anything. I think car companies are just cheap and lazy. But you got a point there with the weight thing.
