How long do you guys keep your spare? I have a 2011 and as far as i know the spare is original so its 13+ years old and has spent the last few years in the bed. I have aftermarket wheels and tires so the spare is just a "get me home" tire but I'm wondering if i should chance it on a 13 year old tire. I've been reluctant to just get a matching spare due to cost plus i don't think they make my wheel anymore so I'd have a mismatched set (although i have that now). I've also thought about getting a cover to protect it from UV but I've never seen anyone with a covered spare in the bed. Is it not worth worrying about. Maybe I'll just get a new tire and keep the stock rim and cover it. thoughts?
