It’s a crapshoot. I wanted a full sized spare for my new van and found a plain jane steel rim that would fit at a you-wrench-it place. It had a crap tire on it which they “threw in”. Price was under 8 bucks. Took it to walmart for the cheapest tire (after all, I hope never to actually use it, or not for very long).
Smart idea. Really good idea.
Even the crap tire that was on the rim is likely better than the 50 mile donut.
Excellent idea. Thank you!
