I wondered; why can’t a spare tire be as modern and advanced as the modern cars they fit?
Developing a proper and practical spare tire kit poses many challenges. To design a truly modern spare tire solution requires more than simply bolting on a wheel that happens to fit. A wheel design must have adequate brake clearance, have precisely accurate bolt patterns, and have the correct wheel and tire diameters, just to name a few.
The challenge: Can we take all these factors into consideration, build exceptional quality into a space-saving spare, and ensure that our design is safe for the sophisticated drive train of your modern car? Not wanting to back down from this challenge, a team of automotive engineers and wheel experts came together and we got busy. Over the course of 9 months, we tested and tweaked our design. After many variations and months of testing, we perfected our ultra-strong 18×4 aluminum alloy space-saver wheel. Our design fits as it should and is right for your car.
Because we strive to build exceptional high-quality into our products, we partnered with an industry-leading alloy wheel manufacturer. They produce our exclusive Modern Spare space-saver wheel to hold the stringent DOT and European TUV certifications and exceed our rigid quality-control standards.
