What is a "spare tire"?
A spare tire is an extra tire kept in a vehicle for emergency use when a regular tire becomes flat or damaged. It is usually stored in the trunk, under the vehicle, or on the back of some larger vehicles. Spare tires come in different types, including full-size tires that match the regular ones and smaller temporary tires designed for short distances. Using a spare tire allows the driver to continue driving until the damaged tire can be repaired or replaced. It is important to check the spare tire’s air pressure regularly to ensure it is ready for use.
