Question 2952

If the spare wheel is the same as the others, what inflation pressure should you use?

  1. The pressure recommended by the manufacturer for the other wheels.
  2. The lowest pressure specified by the manufacturer.
  3. The highest pressure specified by the manufacturer.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: The highest pressure specified by the manufacturer.

To store a conventional spare tire, the highest pressure specified by the manufacturer is recommended to compensate for possible pressure loss. When fitting it, adjust the pressure while the tire is cold to suit its position and conditions of use.
