Tires and spares
Greetings all,
We're planning longer trips this year and the tires on my Greyhawk look very good ... But that got me thinking about things I just don't know.
Like, do the tires on the Greyhawk need to be rotated? If so, what pattern should be used?
And a spare tire ... The book says to call for assistance, and we do have a Roadside Assistance plan ... But, I would imagine that the local RA first responder might not have a 225 75R16 on the truck ... Should I carry an unmounted spare ... Or buy a wheel and mount the spare?
Looking around, I see some bumper mounted spare tire racks can be a little pricey ... $500 plus, not counting the tire and wheel ... Or cover.
A quick measurement seems to indicate the spare would fit in the large exterior compartment on the right side ... Would that be a good or bad idea?
Lots of questions ... :-)
Any help is always appreciated!
Thanks!
Regards, John
