Buying a used tire to carry as a spare?
My tires are 275/80R 22.5 Michilen. I'm considering buying a used tire to carry as a spare. I know a newer date would be great and the same make tire, but I'm assuming that will be hard to come ...

Unmounted and not a weight or space issue. If I can get road service with the right tire at a reasonable price they can put theirs on. Otherwise this one will get me to where I can buy the correct one at a reasonable price.
Is this 22.5 size?
Those weigh 180lb and I would love to see single person getting it own.
When I was buying 17" tires for my pickup (about 60lb each) the tire shop guy dropped it from shelf 7' above the floor and got hurt in the process.
Coming to getting tire for spare, my local tire shop can find me 2-3 years old tire in 12R22.5 size for about $100.
