However there is absolutely no concern incase the rear tyre gets punctured since the spare tyre can also be fitted at the rear. But precautions need to be taken: In such a case, drive the vehicle at not more than 40-60 kmph, drive cautiously at sharp turns while driving with spare tyre at the rear.
It is recommended to replace the spare tyre at rear with standard rear tyre at the nearest service station.
