Sad to hear, RIP
User Manual clearly states never use spare on Rear wheels, if u get a rear flat, move one front to rear and then put spare donut on front, i.e. 2 changes.

^ I wonder how you can do two wheel swaps with the provided jack, though.
Sent from my phone. Might have typos. Sorry.

Put the spare on the front first. Now jack up the rear and replace the flat rear tire with the good factory front.

Yeah, I didn't know as well, and I thought I had read the entire manual. Guess I need to brush up on my reading skills. Spreading this knowledge for those who don't know is a very good thing.
Especially those of us who aren't mechanically inclined when it comes to cars. |

OTH, the FR-S seems to do a good job of protecting the occupants. This is the first fatality I've read about here. Could be others, tho.
