Bayou Titan,
Sorry, if you keep the spare at regular pressure and then attempt to fill-up a flat tire, you just end up with two tires that are at half pressure at best.

I did read one thread on the Webb where some guy would fill his NEW spare to 120 PSI and use it as an air tank. VERY VERY VERY unwise in my opinion. It might work, but if it exploded, the damage could be FATAL. I can just see it now, running down the highway and the damn tire explodes and punctures my gas tank or shears a brake line. No thanks, nor for me.
