So it's pitch black out, before 7 AM, and I'm on my way to work when I get a flat tire. I'm on the highway. I pull over on the side, and wait an hour and a half for the tow truck to arrive. By then the sun rose, and I see that right where I'm sitting, there are two memorials (death markers) on the embankment. Absolutely reasurring. Not.
Anyway, aside from the fact that there was no air in the spare tire (I got this car in May), I discovered that the spare didn't go to that car!!!
So I would strongly suggest that if you have a spare tire, you check that (A) it has air in it and (B) it actually goes to that car. I'm just sayin'.

my sister bought a car for her son, anyway he got a flat, so he phoned green flag rescue they turned up got out the spare then realised all the wheels on the car were van wheels robbed or what?

I once got a puncture on my bike. It made me sad because I couldn't play out with my friends.

Why would I assume that the spare in the trunk doesn't match the car that I bought from a dealership?
And what you consider common sense is actually knowledge that was passed on to you at some point. Unfortunately, I was forced to learn to sew and bake in school while boys were learning the fun stuff.

(I hope you're okay and get the right wheel/tire for your vehicle) 🙂
Check your spares but don't spare your checks (made out to me, that is)
check your spare
