Rotate!
I for one would not even temporarily want to use an elderly spare. I have a Casita, so three tires. I rotate all three so they’re evenly worn and aged and will replace them as a trio.

Overnight stop at Snow Canyon State Park in Ivins, UT on our way home from TX to CA with our new Casita. Beautiful place but 107F, we’ll come back at a cooler time of year!
