I don't have much to add, most has been covered, and some can be put down to get as you feel you need it. I do carry a bunch of tools and stuff for minor repairs.
Definitely tools for a tire change: Wrenches, sockets, extensions, torque wrench.

I bought a 12 T bottle jack. Smaller will do but I liked the size of the screw better than the smaller ones and it has enough lift to work without too much monkeying. I also made a large plywood pad, 3 layers of 3/4", which will hold both the jack and a jack stand at the same time.
Without the pad, if you are on soft ground and using the jack, the jack will be unstable and so will the stand. The pad made all the difference.
I carry a decent DMM which doesn't need to be expensive.
