Key features

- Black vinyl material
- UV and road grime protection
- Drawstring closure
- No logo
Storing a spare under cover
A spare kept under a cover is protected from direct sun and road spray, which helps the rubber age more slowly. The cover works best when the spare is clean and dry before it goes inside, because trapped grit can rub the tread and the fabric over time. Inspect the spare when you put the cover on, and again whenever you check the vehicle’s other equipment.
Vinyl is a good match for this kind of protection because it can be wiped off quickly. Still, vinyl is less breathable than woven material, so moisture can build up inside if the spare is wet when it is covered. Let the spare and cover dry out after rain or washing, then close the drawstring so the cover stays put during driving.
- Dry the spare before covering it
- Wipe grit off the cover regularly
- Check the drawstring before long trips
- Replace a cover that has cracked seams
