I have a spare tire but not on a wheel
Will my Good Sam Roadside Service replace a Flat Tire (outside dual) with my spare tire that is not on a wheel? Can they mount the tire onsite, and is this covered? Glen

I was on the understanding that they will change the tire, but that mounting the tire on the rim is at your cost. It makes no difference to me as I have a mounted spare but it would be good information to have. What say?:h:
You are correct. I had a tire on my 5th wheel that was going flat and I called Good Sam about repair of the tire. The only thing they would do is replace the tire with my spare. It would have been four hours or more before they would be able to get to me. I was at the intersection of I40 and Arizona 95. The truck shops there did not have the equipment to mount anything smaller than a truck tire. So I put on my spare and drove to Kingman and had the flat tire repaired at my cost.
As for the balance beads they work very well and anyone who has actually used the beads will confirm that the beads work. When beads are used they replace the valve stem with a filtered stem.
