How about a bone yard with a wrecked '05? Put the spare on the wheel with
the bad tire leave the tire in some bushes go with a buddy in a different
vehicle to test drive an '05 with the same wheels and switch them! ;-) I
wouldn't advocate doing that. But maybe a Junk yard, if a wheel got damaged
in a crash or something they might sell a single wheel or maybe a pair and
then he would have a 5 wheel rotation?
