Is it necessary to replace my spare tyre if I never use it? 12 year old spare tyre still usable? Last few weeks I went to a workshop for changing my flat tyre, and the guy helped check all my tyres, including the spare tyre. He said my car is from 2008 so the spare should be replaced. But I never used the spare tyre before..why did i need to replace it? My spare tyre still can be used, right?
