You probably could, but don't go over 35-40ish. I hate spares.Well the spare has to fit the vehicle.
Metalic Clanking from 91 Honda Accord?
Technically, its safe, as long as its pumped up.
But the law can get you because by the book, all four of your wheels should be exactly the same.
A lot of spares these days are stupid thin little things only capable of short journeys, but if you have a good old normal wheel, you should be fine.
I'm sure it's ok but you shouldn't go over 80 kph.

Have you tried a Gas station some of them can fix the tire. If you are near a Sears Store they (most) have a tire center..I would only drive with the spare according to your owners Manuel..be safe and don't speed.. Good LuckWhere in phx az can i get a high peformance 350chevy motor?
Depends on the type of spare tire you have. I have a Ford F-250 pickup truck and my spare is just another tire, identical to all 4 of the others, so I could drive on it for the rest of it's life. On the other hand, I have a Geo Metro with a "compact" spare, which is rated for 40 miles at 40 miles per hour (I think, I am not sure I'm remembering the specs correctly). It is not designed to be used for the long term, just enough to get to where I can get the regular tire repaired. I would not count on it for more than a few miles at relatively low speed.4-stroke motors in-take valves.?
If you are going to drive on it. Try shifting all the weight that you can off that side of the car. Drive at a reduced speed beloew the speed limit. If you can find a can of tire glue to spray inside that will help it from breaking down. As well if your car is front wheel drive and the broken tire is on the front. Move your spare to the back and put a good tire on which ever axle is the driving source of your car. Ive seen people drive on spares for weeks. Im not sure how they could that long but they did. Best of the luck to u.Any tips on making my truck run as smothe as possible?
