Can a spare tire that has been stored for 10 years still be used?
1 Answers
It cannot be used because spare tires are rubber products, and prolonged storage causes rubber to deteriorate. Here is more information about spare tires: 1. Types of spare tires: Full-size spare tires, which have the exact same specifications as the original car tires; Non-full-size spare tires, which are slightly smaller in diameter and narrower in width compared to regular tires; Run-flat tires, a tire configuration for vehicles capable of running at zero pressure, also known as puncture-proof tires or self-supporting tires; Foldable spare tires. 2. The purpose of spare tires: A spare tire is a backup tire for a car, primarily used to prevent the car from being stranded due to tire damage.
