<VV> spare tire question

[Bryan Blackwell]

For a short (like a mile) distance at low speed it might be ok.  
Otherwise, put a front tire on the rear, and the spare up front.

BTW, if you haven't checked the clearance up front yet, those are 
pretty tall tires, check the front corner and top of the wheelwell for 
clearance.
