Title: when you check your tire pressure....
Post by: El Barto on June 22, 2005, 09:04:33 PM
check the spare too.  You dont want to take a flat tire off and put a flat one back on.  I checked mine the other day (for the first time ever) and my tire pressure gauge said it was at 3 psi   :blink:

Air pump and Fix a Flat will do the job for a short time, at least.

I've thought about getting one.  But I'm cheap, I'll just fill up the tire at the Hess station for free every couple of weeks so it doesnt lose all its air again.

once you have a flat on the  road and have a flat one day and the spare is flat...you'll wish you had an air pump and fix a flat..

Why? I drive a 30 year old car! Do you really think tires are a concern?!

Well, why wouldn't be?  And now you have 4 spares, right?

My civic has a spare my moms camry has one of those temp things, my dads truck doesnt have a place for a spare. Is it normal for a cheapo 26 year old car to have four wheel disk brakes?
