Going in for an oil change and tire rotation tomorrow. Do most of you guys have your spare rotated in when you have the rotation done? I never have in the past, but then again I never had the full size spare with matching rim before. Thanks for any help and personal preferences.

 

I left my spare a Virgin. When I burn out these stock 33" Duelers and get new boots, I might be able to sell that virgin for a couple bucks? Just my thought.

 

seems us old guys think alike . my spare's never touched the ground - when i need new shoes i'll only have to buy 3 and i'll put the best of the used ones on the back as the spare.

 

same here my spare is still new. Ends up being cheaper in the long run.

 

Thats the answer I was hoping for.

Shortbus I like your idea of only having to buy 3 I never thought of it that way.

I guess with age come experience and with experience come knowledge. Guess I got something to look forward to while getting older.

 

just so you don't end up like Doc. a walker that won't fit through the bathroom door and depends that are 2 sizes too small don't make for a fun day

 

Yuk yuk yuk, you guys a a riot. [&o]

for a different perspective. . . I'm going to upgrade to larger tires when I get new ones so the spare is in the rotation, with the theory that I should be able to extend tire life a bit if I rotate every 7000 or so miles. If you rotate with the spare remember to reset the TPMS per the instructions in the manual. And rumor has it that some or all of the 08s don't have the TPMS in the spare. [/align]

 

I don't rotate my spares. Also experience is over rated. I would trade a little of my experience for some of the youth and enthusiasm I had when I was younger. Enjoy it will you can.
