yeah black definitely looks better without the stripe, blue looks better with the stripe.. and imo white goes either way.. I kept the stripe on my white pony. anyhow good work and yeah the spare is definitely a lot lighter than the full size with tire on it, saves you a little fuel economy by keeping the space saver spare rather than carrying a big 17" rim with a tire on it in your trunk. I'd guess that almost nobody does that.
