Default Flat tire

I am about to purchase an 02 ZO6. I was just wondering if you were to get a flat, are you out there stranded or is there something in the GM Roadside assistance plan that will get you out of your predicament. Also related, just how effective are the flat tire kits.....do they come stock with every Z or is it some sort of aftermarket gig? Thanks.

I have not used the roadside kit, but they say they work and you also have roadside assistance.

I pciked up a small nail in the passenger side front.

I noticed the tire was leaking while the car was parked in my garage.

The pump worked great (I didn't use the sealant goop). I was able to
drive to the tire store and have the tire patched. :D
