    Fun fact; someone needing it is exactly why you have a spare, too. I would give my spare tire to a stranger that needs it, because that’s what a spare is. Then I get a new one. Edit: otherwise your spare is useless when you don’t need it.

    Why don’t you have two spares in case you have two flat tires?!?

      The reason cars don’t carry around two spare tires is because they consume a lot of space. cars don’t have a lot of space to store a bunch of tires. All cars carry one spare tire because most likely in an emergency one tire will go out, so you replace it then get to a shop ASAP to sort things out. If two or more tires go out, stay where you are and summon assistance.
