Main Menu
This tire gives a harsher ride and
less traction on some road surfaces
than the regular tire. Use greater
caution while driving on this tire.
The spare tire is smaller than the
regular tire, reducing your car's
ground clearance. Such things as
road debris and parking lot speed
bumps could possibly damage the
underside of your car.
Do not take your car to an auto-
matic car wash when the spare tire
is mounted. Because of the re-
duced ground clearance, the
underside of your car could be
damaged by the mechanism that
pulls the car through the car wash.

The wheel of the folding spare tire
is designed especially to fit your
car. Do not use your spare tire on
another car unless it is the same
make and model.
The folding spare tire can not be
repaired. Special equipment is
required to remove it from the rim
and install a new tire. If it is dam-
aged, replace it with a folding spare
tire of the same design. New spare
tires are available at your Acura
dealer.
If You Have A Flat Tire
The folding spare tire has a shorter
tread Me than a regular tire. Replace
it when you can see the tread wear
indicator bars. The spare tire is not
designed to be mounted on a regular
wheel, and the compact wheel is not
designed for mounting a regular tire.
