    I used to have a space saver on the front of one of mine for a good while. The MM-R as I recall.
 They will also work OK on a light trailer. Our old 90 Lincoln looks 
reeeeeaaaly dorky with its space saver spare on. Kind of like an elephant 
on a skateboard...   :-)   Good incentive to get a flat repaired quickly.
