Has the global trade uncertainty affected Modern Spare in terms of inventory and price increases?

Yes and no –

Since our humble beginnings in 2016, relying on single manufacturing partners—and more so, partners in some countries that are vulnerable to trade conflict—is something we have avoided. This has proven effective over the years, and we hope it will help us navigate what may come in 2025.

We don’t anticipate significant price increases, if any, in the coming months. The real challenge may be disruptions in global shipping later in 2025 that delay shipments and put strain on inventories.

Thankfully, we’re well stocked now, and most new orders are being shipped out immediately.

Consider this:

If you are thinking of purchasing a spare tire, now may be a good time—just in case the supply disruptions cause delays or lengthy inventory issues.

If you have questions on this or need help selecting the right kit, our spare tire experts are available by phone or email.

Thank you,
– Modern Spare
