When we talk about the different parts of our vehicle, the most essential \u2014 and therefore the ones that must be kept in the best condition \u2014 are the car\u2019s windows and the wheels.<\/p>\n

When it comes to keeping the windshield in perfect condition, it\u2019s as simple as visiting a Ralarsa car glass workshop so we can repair cracked glass<\/strong><\/a> or a car window chip in just a few minutes. On the other hand, if you need an immediate tyre change during your road trip, you will need to use what is known as the \u201cspace saver tyre.\u201d<\/p>\n

On the Ralarsa website, you\u2019ll not only find your nearest car glass workshop, but we also have a motor world blog where, in today\u2019s article, we explain exactly what a space saver tyre is, as well as its characteristics and limitations, so that if you ever need to use one, you can drive in total safety.<\/p>\n

Space saver tyre or spare wheel<\/h2>\n

Space saver tyres \u2014 also called spare wheels \u2014 are those we should use to replace a tyre in the event of a puncture or another issue. Normally, they are stored in a small compartment in the boot of our car, so they have to be somewhat smaller than a normal tyre, which is why they are nicknamed \u201cspace savers.\u201d<\/p>\n

Characteristics and limitations<\/h2>\n

As we mentioned before, the space saver tyre is smaller than a conventional tyre; to be more exact, it is narrower and has a smaller diameter. Even so, it is perfectly possible to reach a workshop where the burst or punctured tyre can be repaired.<\/p>\n

However, we must remember that these tyres are for emergency use only, as their useful life is just 200 kilometres \u2014 enough to get to the repair point. In addition, space saver tyres have certain speed limitations: when these are fitted to our vehicle, the maximum speed we can reach is 80 km\/h, and if we exceed this, we may face a fine from traffic authorities.<\/p>\n

If we choose to drive longer than necessary with one of these tyres, the consequences can go beyond fines \u2014 due to the height difference, it can also affect other components of our vehicle such as the suspension, axle, differential, bearings, or even the gearbox.<\/p>\n

Repairs you should fix as soon as possible<\/h2>\n

Just as it\u2019s important to know how to act in the event of a tyre puncture during a trip, it\u2019s also important to know what to do in the case of other urgent repairs that may arise on the road and interrupt your journey \u2014 such as a car window chip.<\/p>\n

Overlooking this type of unexpected damage to your vehicle\u2019s glass and not visiting the relevant workshop can result in a small chip turning into a large crack, making it impossible to repair cracked glass and leading to a full windshield replacement. In this article<\/strong><\/a> you\u2019ll find all the information you need to prevent an impact from spreading.<\/p>\n
