Spare Tyre ???????? was created by nicho
what you recon i have 215 80 15 Malatesta Kaiman on 8 spoke rims, no spare at the min didt know what to get as the ones i have are directional, was thinking of getting one the same diameter but non directional and stick one of these covers over it and get a eight spoke rim same offset.it would be just to get me home if i needed it and the extra weight at the back must help the rear grip more.not a clue what tyre i could get.

I have special tracks which are directional but i also have a spare as id rather have one than none.

If your offroad and get a puncture and put a less grippy tire on then it will be more likely to get stuck as it will always spin as the other has more grip.

Best having a spare even tho directional to keep you going untill the other is repaired or have two spares if possible (one for each side)
