I always carried an electric pump, plug kit and a couple of cans of fix-a-flat in the trunk. Jaydee makes a great point, what if the flat tire is a rear? Doubt that is going to fit in the boot; so now you have to carry the materials to repair a flat along side the road, as well as the spare.
the combo of a repair kit for remote places and AAA is the best bet. If you go with a spare you are going to have to adjust your suspension as that is a lot of weight in the rear and it is going to affect your handling.
