Where is the spare tire placed in Weltmeister vehicles?
2 Answers
Weltmeister vehicles generally place the spare tire inside the trunk or suspend it beneath the trunk. Definition of a car spare tire: A spare tire refers to the backup tire for a passenger car, with specifications matching those of the original car tires. However, some vehicles use specially colored wheel rim spare tires, compact spare tires, folding spare tires, run-flat tires, etc., to remind the owner to promptly inspect and replace faulty tires. Types of car spare tires: Spare tires are mainly categorized into full-size spare tires, non-full-size spare tires, and run-flat tires. Run-flat tires, also known as safety tires or commonly referred to as "anti-blowout tires," unlike regular tires, do not leak air or leak very slowly when punctured. They can maintain the driving profile, and the tire bead remains securely fixed to the rim, ensuring the car can drive for an extended period or temporarily and stably to a service station.
I've been driving my WM EX5 for almost two years when I discovered there's no spare tire well after lifting the trunk floor. I was puzzled at first, but later learned that WM models don't come with spare tires—they just stash an emergency kit in the left-side hidden compartment. It includes tire sealant and an air pump; when you get a nail puncture, you inject the sealant and inflate the tire, which can hold for about 10 kilometers. Just remember the sealant has a two-year shelf life, so check and replace it regularly. Honestly, saving over 20 kilograms helps with the EV's range. If the tire's completely wrecked, you'll have to call for roadside assistance.
