[TR] Space-saver or full-size spare?

[Bob Danielson]

That write up was from ’08 and I’m sure any junkyard can cross reference that tire to another newer one. …. Which I probably should do.

I'm not sure how I'd feel driving on a (minimum) 27 year old tire,
even at 50 MPH for 50 miles.  I'll never forget the day my original
unused Volvo space saver spare exploded in the back of the wagon.  I'm
just glad I wasn't driving when it happened.

As always, YMMV.
