I have a professional trolley jack to change summer/winter with chocks and axle stands in my garage. The thought of trying to this with a 2 tonne vehicle on a road that is probably not dead-flat is almost beyond belief. I've also never had a puncture in 37 years of driving so do you need RFT?
I think you have to think about like buying insurance. For the most part, you never need it, but that one time something happens, you are damn glad you have it.
