Is the spare tire of Cadillac CT5 the same as the regular tire?

The spare tire can be used as a regular tire. The spare tire is the same as the regular tire. The spare tire is essentially a regular tire; it just serves as a replacement when the regular tire fails. The spare tire is actually for emergency use and is not intended for long-term use. For tire maintenance, you should regularly pay attention to the following: 1. Maintain a safe distance when driving at high speeds to avoid unnecessary or frequent braking, which can reduce tire damage. Also, for your safety, pay attention to the tread depth of the tires. Tires that are nearly worn out have reduced friction with the road surface and longer braking distances, so avoid high-speed driving. 2. There is a direct correlation between tire load and pressure. Overloading is similar to low pressure and can cause tire damage. Frequent use under overload conditions can reduce the tire's lifespan by 20%-50%. 3. Pressure is the life of the tire. The inflation pressure must comply with the national standards specified for different types and specifications of tires. Regularly check the tire pressure, as both overinflation and underinflation can lead to irregular wear, cracking at the base of the tread grooves, broken cords, ply separation, and tire blowouts. If you plan to drive continuously at high speeds, the pressure should be increased by 5%-10% above the standard pressure. Additionally, after driving, the internal pressure of the tire will rise due to increased temperature, and you should not release air at this time.
