Complete Spare Tire Kit Instructions
(Trunk Mount Instructions Apply To Charger and Challenger Models)

*Tire comes prefilled with 60 psi of pressure. When handling take caution not to puncture or damage the tire. It is recommended to periodically check your spare tire pressure to maintain it for safe vehicle use*

**Modern Spare does not assume any liability, express or implied for product use. User assumes all liability and responsibility for product use**

First and foremost, THANK YOU for your purchase of our spare tire solution for your vehicle. As fellow car enthusiasts, we have put a great deal of time and energy into delivering a stellar product for your vehicle.

In this kit, you will find everything that you need to quickly and efficiently change a flat tire on your vehicle.
To use, please follow the below steps and read the full instructions prior to beginning:

1. When changing a flat, it is best to do so on stable level ground away from traffic.

2. Apply parking brake and chock wheels.

3. Remove the kit contents from your vehicle. If your kit contains a carrying case, please remove the tire and
wheel from the carrying case. Once the tire and wheel are removed, you will find a zipper pocket in the bottom of
the case. Open the pocket to remove the lug wrench, scissor jack, and disposable tire bag.

4. Most vehicles have 4 different designated lifting points located by the rocker panels near each wheel.
Essentially, it is an opening that allows access to the pinch weld lifting point and should be used to safely lift
the vehicle. Prior to raising the vehicle loosen the lug nuts on the flat tire that you wish to change. Please
align the jacking pad of the scissor jack with the jacking point closest to the tire that you are changing.
Please consult owner’s manual prior to lifting vehicle for complete lifting instructions and/or specific vehicle
lifting procedures. Please see example below:

Scissor Jack Instructions

Please ensure to align the slot on the top of the scissor jack pad with the pinch weld jacking point as shown. To achieve optimal jack stability, the full pinch weld jack point must be within the slot on the scissor jack pad. Failure to do so could place an uneven load on the jack resulting in jack failure.

In addition to these jack placement instructions please ensure that you use the scissor jack on level ground with the vehicle stabilized. Ensure that the vehicle is in park with the parking brake engaged prior to lifting. It is also recommended to chock the wheels to further stabilize the vehicle prior to lifting. Use only approved jacking points as found in your owner’s manual, with the scissor jack base being placed on level solid ground directly beneath the lifting point of the vehicle. Please also check your vehicle owner’s manual for any vehicle specific instructions prior to lifting.

5. Raise vehicle using the ratcheting scissor jack. The ratchet can operate in a clockwise or counterclockwise
direction by using a small switch on the side of the ratchet. Do not place yourself or any part of your
body under the vehicle while being raised or supported by the jack.

6. Completely remove the lug nuts and flat tire. Place flat tire in included disposable bag.

7. Place the Modern Spare wheel and tire on the vehicle using the supplied lug nuts, that came with the Modern Spare kit.

8. Ensure that the lug/bolts nuts are tight and will not come loose (approximately 100-140 ft lbs, please check vehicle owners manual to confirm exact specs).

9. Please note that the included wheel may be a dual PCD wheel, meaning that the wheel has two seperate bolt patterns, totaling 10 different bolt holes. Please align the 5 bolt holes of the wheel that match up with your vehicle’s bolt pattern.

10. Lower vehicle using ratcheting scissor jack, place flat tire and kit contents in your vehicle.

11. On most vehicles, when using a spare tire of any kind, you should turn off your traction control system if equipped while driving. Failure to do so may result in vehicle warning lights. Please consult your vehicle owner’s manual for complete instructions on changing traction control modes or deactivating these systems.

12. The tires used on all Modern Spare spare tire kits have a DOT “M” speed rating. The “M” speed rating designates that the tire is capable of traveling at a constant speed of up to 81 mph. Although the tire is built to this specification, many manufacturers recommend that the narrow space-saving tire is not to exceed 50 mph given the narrow size relative to the regular tires on your vehicle. This is good practice and you should always drive with caution when using a spare tire. Please avoid any speed above 50 mph and only as a means to escape heavy and fast-moving freeway traffic.

Please take caution when driving on a spare. Although it is capable of operating for a long distance it is designed to be used on a temporary basis and does not have the same traction or performance capability of a full size OEM wheel & tire. Should you have any questions regarding your spare tire, please contact us via our website or (801) 896-3395.

I could of went with a cheaper spare Tire. Having the Bar, Jack & Spare in one convenient Carry Case is wonderful.

Great product, nicest spare I have ever owned.

This is the second kit I’ve purchased, perfect for a car that comes without a spare. Kit has everything you need for a roadside fix.

Received my tire in excellent condition. Getting registered and installation instructions downloaded. Will definitely recommend this unit to family and friends!

The product is of superior quality. It came in a timely manner and is all it was as advertised and is actually better than expected!

High quality components. Slim profile does not fill up my small trunk. Worth its weight in gold because I no longer have to buy expensive run flat tires. Helpful customer service.

Product was shipped on time.Tire Fit was perfect. Very happy with the tool kit. Would recommend this product.

Looks good. bought for piece of mind after getting a sidewall split at 1200 miles. fits great in the existing yet, empty wheel well of my Honda.

This is a very well packaged product…especially when purchasing the wheel cover carrying case. Everything fits nicely inside the zippered cover ready for when an emergency arises.

Just received and very impressed by the quality of the spare and its accessories. It fit very nice on the Kia but more importantly it looks like it can be used on other models. Very happy so far.

Extremely satisfied

Awesome product. Fits perfect.

Great product. Comes neatly packaged and fits great in the trunk.

Great product, very quick delivery. I will recommend this to my relatives.

Happy to support American small business! Quality spare and accessories. You won’t go wrong in obtaining spare tire kit if your vehicle did not come with one.

Just received my Modern Spare tire for my 2024 Honda CR-V Sport hybrid. Everything seems high-quality, including the carrying case. Obviously (and thankfully) haven't had an opportunity to use it yet, but it already gives me peace of mind.

Great to have a solid spare to count on in my new Tesla Model 3.

Excellent, the tire is more substantial than I expected but it is still lightweight and it fits easily in my small trunk.

Great product quality. I love the spare tire case.

I was impressed by the overall quality of the total kit. The allow wheel was nicely finished, the quality of the tools were top notch and the carrying case was made of rugged materials.
