What’s included with AAA Spare Tire Service?
Whenever you get a flat, an expert AAA technician will come out to install or reinflate your vehicle’s spare tire. If an inflated spare isn’t available, or if the technician deems the existing spare unsafe, you can have your vehicle towed to an approved facility (within your Membership towing distance) to get the tire repaired or replaced. Your covered towing distance will depend on your AAA Membership plan.
Choose the right roadside plan for you.
All AAA Roadside Membership plans come with 24/7 spare tire installation service. Membership travels with you, whether you’re the driver or the passenger.

Stories from AAA Members
AAA Members may get stranded, but we’re there to get them back on the road.
“The technician from the Modesto branch did a great job, taking the time to change my weathered tire to a full-size spare. It took a while because my lug nuts had expanded with age. He took the time to take the tire off without any complaints. Great customer service, as well.”—Lamon H., California
“The AAA technician who changed my car's flat tire did an excellent job. He arrived quickly and was courteous and cheerful. He worked efficiently, double-checking his work to ensure the tire was securely in place. I am very grateful to AAA for getting me back on the road safely!”—Ann F., Northern California
