Hey, like some of us, my spare is original (tubed 165) and doesn't hold air anyway, so I leave it at home and put on of my V710's in the rear trunk in case I need a spare.
I drive my car to work in the summer often, and that tire gets pretty warm in the trunk while out in the sun. It even smells like rubber when I open. So, am I accidentally putting heat cycles on this tire and will it harden earlier than otherwise? Seeking wisdom of the tire gods. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) |
