Default Help please

On the way home tonight at hypersonic speed... a mahusive bang, bit of a wobble and one big bolt in my back tyre...

I have now put on that stupid spare tyre thingie but i have in the back of my mind that it can only go on the front and i have to swap round my wheels? is this correct or have i lost the plot?

Any help would be appreciated.

Yep, had to do this recently and it's a pain in the proverbial. Bear in mind that the revised top speed is there for a reason - excessive tyre wear and reduced cornering ability are the result of ignoring the warnings
