How far on that Dumbass Compact Spare?

We replaced our compact spare (2001 3.2CL) with a full size steel rim (TireRack) when we purchased new tires, and kept the best old tire to use on the new steel rim as a spare.....why have speed-rated tires and a 50mph spare? The only drawback is that the cover over the spare sits about 1" higher, but we don't care about that. Also, the new tires are directional (Yokohamas), but we kept the original Michelin as a spare, so it'll work on either side. HTH!
