Can a Spare Tire Be Used for Three or Four Days?
1 Answers
Whether a spare tire can be temporarily used for three or four days depends on the type of spare tire. If it is a full-size spare tire, it can be used for three or four days or even longer; if it is a non-full-size spare tire, the driving distance should preferably not exceed 100 kilometers. Precautions for using a spare tire: There is a speed limit when driving with a spare tire: Some car spare tires have a speed limit of 80 kilometers per hour; others have a speed limit of 60 kilometers per hour. Therefore, when using a spare tire, always remember not to exceed the maximum speed limit of the tire. Spare tires should not be used for front wheels: Spare tires are generally meant to replace rear wheels. If a front wheel fails, it is best to move a rear wheel to the front and then replace the rear wheel with the spare tire. This is because the front wheels bear more weight when encountering obstacles, experience greater friction, and have a higher risk of blowouts. Therefore, placing the spare tire on the rear wheel can increase safety to some extent.
