I pack a small 12V air compressor (tire pump) in my trunk, inside the cavity of the wheel. I believe the wheel is mounted face down on purpose, so as to facilitate stowing away items in there. (first aid kit, etc) BMWs and Hondas have their spares mounted this way too, valve side down.
Not only is the air compressor is good for inflating a flat spare, but it's also good for inflating a tire with a slow leak; sometimes the tire will hold air long enough to get you to a service station to get it patched... in that case, no need to break out the spare!
