Cars were made to carry only a few people at first. There wasn't much room for people or cargo. Luggage was put in the rumble seat in the back of the car. The spare tire was attached to the outside of the car. It had spoked wheels. The only kind available at the time. Tires didn't last very long back then. Roads were gravel and/or dirt. They were full of pot holes, pieces of metal, thorns, etc. Flat tires were about as common as full ones. Tires also had an inner tube inside them. If punctured, they had to be repared with a rubber patch.
