Can a Smaller Spare Tire Be Used?
1 Answers
A spare tire that is smaller in size should not be used even if it doesn't cause the vehicle to pull to one side, as it poses risks such as tire blowouts. Below is an introduction to spare tires: 1. Introduction: A spare tire is a backup tire prepared for a vehicle. In case a tire blows out or encounters a problem, the spare tire can promptly replace it, preventing the vehicle from breaking down midway. 2. Types: Full-size spare tires, non-full-size spare tires, and run-flat spare tires. 3. Usage: There are strict requirements for tire rotation in specialized stores, and spare tires should not participate in tire rotation. Tire rotation is meant to balance wear in different areas, and it is no longer recommended to rotate tires from left to right. Rotating tires from front to back also presents issues with uneven wear. Since spare tires experience different wear patterns, including them in rotation increases safety hazards.
