The clue “"Flat" or "spare" item” in the NYT Mini (August 07, 2024) is a simple one I guess. The answer is something that can be described as “flat” when it loses air pressure and becomes deflated and It can also be referred to as a “spare” when there’s an extra carried in a vehicle for emergencies, such as replacing a flat one. Therefore, a “TIRE” fits both descriptions in the clue, making it the correct answer.
The answer is TIRE (Down 2)
