Default A friendly safety reminder.

I am asking each and every S2000 owner to go out to where your cars are and please check the air pressure level of your spare tire (if you still carry one.) While you are there, you might as well check all the spares in all of your vehicles. You (or worse, your significant other or kids) do not want to be stranded somewhere with a flat and a spare tire with little to no air in it. If you carry an air pump, this may not apply to you.

I just ask you to do this for peace of mind and safety.

That is all. We now return you to our regularly schedule program.

Good advice I actually just looked at mine yesterday and wondered if it still had adaquate air preasure in it. Suppose I should actually check that.

It sucks not having any air in your spare, I got stranded on the turnpike because of a flat spare, had to have a tow truck come and get me because there was no way I was leaving my car on the side of the road.
So make sure you check the air pressure.

Ah the wisdom of a father. And right you are.
Thanks for the reminder I'll get on it when the sun comes up.

Oil level and tire pressure should be part of every s2k owner's weekly wash wax/ care care routine. I carry a tire pressure gauge with me in my car at all times. I also bought a little air compressor at walmart for 14 bucks. It works great too!
