Compact spare tire
40sa24a
The compact spare tire is designed for temporary
emergency use only.
The compact spare tire is identified by the distinctive
wheel design and color and special wording
"TEMPORARY USE ONLY" molded into the side wall of
the tire.
To keep the compact spare tire noticeable, do not hide
the wheel by a wheel cover or such.
The compact spare tire saves space in your luggage
compartment, and its lighter weight helps to improve fuel
economy and permits easier installation in case of a flat
tire.
