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 ...

This has been an interesting read. In my last RV, an Itasca we carried a mounted Spare, only needed it one time. The Itasca has steel wheels and simulators so all the wheels were the same.
Fast Fwd, New RV is a DP, 22.5 wheels, 6 tires all the same but three different and unique wheels. Front are aluminum, shallow dish, rear outters are deep dish aluminum, inners are steel. So this means I'll likely carry an unmounted spare and potentially a set of irons. When and where possible I will rely on ERS to effect the change, but should I find myself out of touch I will be able to make the change. At least I still can now, we'll have to see how that works when I get older.
Any thoughts on mounting your own spare on a wheel?
