That would be correct, the 3rd. row when folded down takes the space used to store the spare. You should check some local tire stores and see if they have the equipment (very expensive) to change run-flats and if they stock your tires. The equipment is the issue, they can get tires in a day or 2. A problem away from home could be serious especially in a rural area where run flats are rare. For me, until run-flats become more established I like the insurance of a spare, fortunately I don't need the 3rd. row.
