What is installing a spare tire all about?

A customer surprised by a flat tire may want a mechanic to come out and replace the damaged tire with the spare tire.

Keep in mind:

Spare tires in many vehicles are intended only to be used as a temporary solution until a new tire (or set of tires) can be purchased.

How it's done:

  • Remove the tire and install spare tire.
  • Check and adjust the air pressure in all tires and adjust as needed.

Our recommendation:

Spare tires are a great solution when you find yourself with a flat tire, so you should always keep a spare tire in your vehicle. If you don’t feel comfortable putting the spare tire on, you should call a mechanic to do it for you.

What are the common symptoms indicating you need to install a spare tire?

  • Tire is flat
  • Wheel or tire has damage

How important is this service?

Cars need four tires to operate. Most vehicles come equipped with a spare tire in the trunk, just in case one of your regular tires blows or goes flat. In the event that a tire loses its pressure, you can use the spare tire as an interim tire until you get it replaced. Spare tires may be compact or donut spare tires which are smaller than regular tires, and for safety concerns shouldn’t be driven for long periods of time, but they allow you to get your car mobile again after a flat tire. A full-size spare can also be installed which can be used indefinitely until you can have your flat tire repaired or replaced, as long as the spare tire has tread remaining. Spare tires are not meant for use above 55 mph, so you should not drive your vehicle at highway speeds while it’s equipped with a spare tire, either compact or full-size.

If your vehicle is equipped with wheel locks, a mechanic will need the wheel lock key to remove the flat tire and install your spare tire. Keep your wheel lock key readily accessible in your vehicle in the event of a flat tire.

Robert

Pontiac Vibe L4-1.8L - Valve Cover Gasket - Marietta, Georgia
What can I say? Robert was phenomenal! His diagnostic skills in determining my cars problem for a pesky "check engine light" were spot on! Robert was punctual, professional and intelligent in terms of his breadth of knowledge concerning automotive mechanics. He was a delight to work with and seemed to intrinsically know what the problem was with my car. Rob worked on my car by the the glare of his worklight and an overhead streetlamp. Rain threatened, but Rob was determined to complete the task at hand. Not only does he work quickly and accurately, but he also provides a wealth of automotive information to a greenhorn novice as myself regarding my 2004 Vibe. Other options were presented if my vehicle did not pass inspection, Which I was grateful for, but I'm happy to say that today, my vehicle passed emission testing with "shining colors!" It is true that a good mechanic is "worth his weight in gold". With that being said, Rob is certainly the "gold standard" as far as an amicable, competent mechanic is concerned. I was utterly amazed and very much pleased with his outstanding candor, professionalism, and experience. I will call on him again. that indeed is the greatest compliment one can give. Thanks Rob!
