I simply took my spare and had it resealed @ a Wal Mart tire shop. A couple of days later, I ended up putting it on the rear when I had a nail ruin the sidewall. And as fate would have it, I had to drive around with the spare on for about 2 weeks (Yoko's out of production, and had to wait for both payday, and new tire delivery), and clocked over 200 miles on the tire durring my commute. Granted of course, I never exceeded the speed limit of 45 driving on city streets. That was last summer, and when I checked a couple of weeks ago, my spare is still holding 60psi. If you want to simply change out the tire, then I believe that Oldsmobile makes a tire in the same exact size for their minivans. $15 is the average price for the spares in junk yards. Just take it to a specialty tire shop, and have them mount the new one. Otherwise, if resealed, the original spare will work just as intended. -Robert vin 6585 "X"
