Driving on a spare tire?
I got a flat tire Saturday and am now driving around on my donut spare. I plan on going to an auto parts yard to get the new tire and a new rim next Saturday because I work during the week. I have to drive about 10 mike each way to work and I might need to go to the store or something until there so I may be driving about 125 mile on this spare until Saturday. Can the spare handle that mileage, it’s about ½ the with of a normal tire. My car is a Volvo. A: Other people has posted higher speeds, but with safety in mind, I would not go faster than 35 mph on a doughnut. They are designed to be light and small and they sit under your car or in your trunk and get old. Replace as soon as you can, there is nothing more embarrassing than having your spare go flat as well.
