Can a spare tire be used for a long time?
1 Answers
Spare tires cannot be used for a long time. A spare tire is not intended to replace a regular tire for extended periods. Due to its infrequent use, the spare tire has relatively less friction with the ground. If a spare tire is installed, the different friction coefficients, ground adhesion levels, and tire pressures among the four tires can negatively impact the vehicle's braking system, steering system, and suspension system over time, posing significant safety risks. A spare tire refers to an extra tire for a car, with specifications matching those of the original tires. Precautions for using a spare tire include: 1. Regularly inspect the spare tire; 2. Avoid prolonged use; 3. Do not include the spare tire in tire rotation; 4. Keep it away from oil products.
