This brings up a good question. Who here has checked the air pressure in their spare lately, or ever lol
Never new about that. Mine will probly blow out tonight then lol.They had that huge recall awhile back from blowouts. I believe he's referencing that.
The spare tires are usually a cheaper tire and not exactly like the 4 OEM Tires.
Every 5000 kms when i do my oil. Part of my routine.This brings up a good question. Who here has checked the air pressure in their spare lately, or ever lol
Acually it gets checked more often then the four on the truck. The TPM tells me when ther low. LolThis brings up a good question. Who here has checked the air pressure in their spare lately, or ever lol
if its more than 6 years old I'd be suspicious a out using it.Do any of you use the brand new spare under the truck and just buy three more like it? Thats what im debating on doing.
In my mind no point waisting a new tire.

I’ve always used my spare as a new tire for my next set @merc_man As long as it’s a good tire. It’s never exposed to sunlight. Brand new in my book. Even if it’s old
that's a bunch of chicken *s-word if you ask me. Or some brands charge extra for spares.Wifes car has no spare has an airpump with fix flat built in pump from factory
Why how often you use a spare. And its great for women. Not many know to change a flat but can air a tire. All the newer vehicles are goun that wayBuy the time I get a vehicle that spare is 15 years old lol.

The ones I just got rid if we're junk. Loud, poor handling, bad in the rain, only lasted half there expected milage. I think that covers it.Lol, what's wrong with good year?
That's the point of a spare. Hardly used but there when you need it. I can think of a few examples where fix a flat wouldn't have helped. Kinda like carrying a pistol everyday, you may never need to pull it but if you ever do you'll be thanking god you had it.Why how often you use a spare. And its great for women.
