The AEV tire carrier is not cheap, but really nice because it opens with the tailgate. Only need to open one thing, not open 2 things. BestTop had one like that for TJs, and AEV has one for JKs.
I've had so many flat tires on the trail that I was on a first name basis with the great folks at Americas Tire store. Def way more than 10. ATS has the BEST tire hazard warranty because they don't pro-rate it. I will always buy that. Ran BFG 32" for many years. It's always a rock slashed sidewall. They were always really good sports about it;

Americas Tire Store: "Oh, it's the sidewall! We can't patch that, we'll have to give you a new tire."
Me: "Ok!"
Them: "That will be $38 for a new warranty, mounting & balancing".
Me: "Ok
" (Me thinking; Those are $225 tires, right?)
Anyway, I will always carry a spare tire and sometimes a patch kit too. That AAA card is pretty much useless on the trail.
