Space Saver Tyres


To help you understand space saver tyres more, here is a brief summary on what they are:

Everything you need to know about space saver tyres

A space saver tyre, or a donut spare, is designed to be compact and lightweight, offering a temporary solution to a flat tyre without compromising too much trunk space or vehicle weight.


Unlike a full-size spare, the space saver is smaller in diameter and width, intended for limited use until a regular tyre can be repaired or replaced. Its main advantages are its portability and the convenience it offers by not taking up as much space as a conventional spare tyre, making it a practical inclusion in modern vehicles where efficiency and space utilization are key.


Spare Tyres: Frequent Asked Questions

Is it OK to drive with a spare or space saver tyre?

Yes, it is OK to drive with a spare or space saver tyre, but only temporarily and under certain conditions. Space saver tyres are designed to get you to a garage to have your full-size tyre repaired or replaced and should not be used as a long-term replacement. They typically have a speed limit of 50 mph and should only be used for limited distances, usually up to 50 miles.

What are space saver tyres?

Space saver tyres are compact, lightweight tyres designed to save space and weight in a vehicle, allowing for more cargo space or reduced vehicle weight. They are smaller than the vehicle's regular tyres and are intended to be used temporarily to replace a flat tyre until it can be repaired or replaced.

Are space saver tyres any good?

Space saver tyres are good for their intended purpose — to get you safely to a garage in the event of a flat tyre. However, they are not designed for long-term use or high-speed driving. They offer less traction and poorer handling compared to standard tyres and should only be used as a temporary solution.

Is it illegal to drive on a space saver tyre?

No, it is not illegal to drive on a space saver tyre, as long as you adhere to the restrictions regarding speed and distance that come with the tyre. However, driving on a space saver tyre for longer than necessary or at speeds over the recommended limit could be considered driving without due care and attention.

How long does a space saver or spare tyre last?

A space saver or spare tyre is designed for temporary use only, typically limited to about 50 miles (80 kilometres), although it's important to check the manufacturer's recommendation for your specific tyre. The lifespan can vary depending on driving conditions, but it's crucial to replace or repair the original tyre and reinstall it as soon as possible.

Do you legally have to carry a spare tyre?

No, you are not legally required to carry a spare tyre in your vehicle. However, it is highly recommended for practical reasons. Instead of a spare tyre, some vehicles come equipped with tyre repair kits.

Why do cars no longer have a spare wheel?

Many modern cars do not include a spare wheel to reduce weight, improve fuel efficiency, and increase cargo space. Manufacturers may provide a tyre repair kit or run-flat tyres as alternatives, which allow you to drive a limited distance after a puncture to reach a safe location for repair.

Can a car pass an MOT with a spare wheel on?

Yes, a car can pass an MOT with a spare wheel fitted, provided the spare is mounted on the car and meets all the required MOT standards for tyre condition, including tread depth and structural integrity. However, if the spare is a space saver tyre, it should be noted that it's only meant for temporary use, and the vehicle should have a full-size tyre fitted for regular driving conditions.
