You are better off with a good unmounted spare than NO SPARE AT ALL.
The $600.00 to mount a spare that is referenced above is BS on the part of the poster.I read the post. The guy had to buy a tire while broke down and had to pay $600.00 for the tire.
I have had at least 3 tire changes paid for by GSRA each time MY SPARE WAS USED and no charge was incurred.
HOWEVER the service dispatched to help you at the side of the road is an independent contractor working under the free enterprise system.
What he charges you for a non-covered service is entirely up to the contractor.
SO on the side of the road you are at the guys mercy. FREE ENTERPRISE!
SO you may pay a higher price at the side of the road for mounting your spare it will be less than buying a new tire under the same circumstance
