Thanks to wwhale and others on the board, I was able to get and install a compact spare and jack kit for our SH-SHAWD. I wanted to get it when I purchased the car, but the dealer wanted $210 for the kit minus the wheel.
The Acura kit which includes the jack, lug wrench, hoist and hardware and a donut steel wheel and stickers. I purchased a Kuhmo 165-90-17 temp spare from tire rack for $77. My wife just so happened to drive through Delaware for work so she picked it up from their New Castle warehouse. Took the tire and got it mounted at a local shop for $15.
I bought the kit from Bernardi and it was $52 plus shipping which is $20 off MSRP. The P/N is 06421-TZ5-A61 so you can possibly pick one up at your local Acura dealer and not have to pay shipping.
I ended up ordering wiper inserts and other accessories so all the discounts more than paid for the shipping cost for me.
It took me about 15-20 minutes to install everything. All you need is a socket set with 12mm socket to install the hoist. A 3" extension helps but is not totally needed.
So including the $16 that I paid for shipping the kit, I paid less than $180 for everything and have the piece of mind of having a usable spare tire in an emergency instead of a can of fix a flat.
