Tires are supposed to age out after 5 years or so. My spare tire is over 10. Does it need to be replaced?
minus-square_haha_oh_wow_@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·1 year agoYes, it needs to be replaced at this point. A spare will last a little longer than regular tire as long as it’s protected from the sun, but after 10 years, it’s time to replace it.
