Spare wheel/tyre. Carry it or don't?

[TrickyDickyxyz]

My 3.5 ton Elnagh is always right on or just over weight and I don't waste weight by carrying excess hardly ever used items.
Which brings me to wondering if the underslung spare wheel and tyre comes into the hardly if ever used category.
I'm guessing but imagine the weight saving would be in the region of 30kg or so, maybe more. That's a lot of extra wine as other Funsters have said...
What thoughts are there about continuing carrying it or loading up with extra "wine" instead.

It's why I rang the AA to ask the specific question. And also to clarify the cover, because the website said 'vehicles under 3500kg' [cannot remember exact wording, but, as written, it indicated that the GVW would have to be a maximum of 3499kg. The Call Centre person checked the actual policy wording and confirmed that the upper limit is 3500kg.

That's ok then?
I am under 3.5 tonnes.
