Spare Tire
The whole purpose of my roof rack, well... aside from looking cool, was to provide a place for my full size spare, which i finally got around to purchasing today! Its about time haha
Anyway here in southern Utah during the summer the average air temperature is well above 100 degrees, when you factor in the sun baking down on a black tire all day, the recipe is well... crispy fried tire. My solution: A tire cover, obviously... haha I picked this one up from Quadratec. Even though most everyone will never see "Life is good" written on the tire cover, i figured it was a nice touch for those who do see it. Its kinda my life motto. All though I'm not thrilled with the looks of having my spare covered up, i think it will play out to be good in the long run! Compromise sucks sometimes. Anyway i didn't have much time to take some good pictures, so here are ones i took real fast so you guys get the idea.
A brief milo history flashback




Life is good


Anyway early next week ill bring my Canon SLR camera and go out and take some good action shots for COTM. In the meantime let me know what you think of the spare tire, and its cover! Hit or miss? I'm still currently undecided.

Im pretty sure u can only submit until the 19th for COTM amd tue spare is fine covered, ofcourse everyome would rather have it uncovered but due to the weather where you live covering it up and saving it to be usable when u need it will be better than for looks

I'm on a tight budget, but I also like to do things the right way so I'm currently undecided. What's your thoughts on the matter?
Haha good point! Those two are soon to come.
