I took out the spare tire, but not the jack. The spare tire won't help me no matter what happens. If I put the spare tire on, I'd be dragging fiberglass bumpers.
In your case, I would keep the spare tire and jack. No reason to take it out.

i took mine out since a 15" donut does me no good with 17's and with no spare tire i figure there was no point in a jack so. I have autoclub and really dont have to worry bout it to much!

if I get rear ended, I've got tons of problems... my back bumper is molded in, and it won't be my insurance paying for the repairs. I also keep a bag full of tools in my trunk. I've got plenty of people who can bring me a spare 15" or 17" wheel if I get a flat.
I wouldn't suggest it to other people, though. I can't use it because I'd be dragging my body kit, but if you have 17" wheels I still think you could benefit from the spare.
