When one person (said person can be single/taken/etc) hangs out with multiple couples at once, and can no longer be referred to as a “Third Wheel.” A “Third Wheel” usually applies to one person and ONE couple.
Person 1: “Yea man, I was at the movies with Shaun, Nick, and their girlfriends, it was pretty fun!”
Person 2: “You had fun? You weren’t even a “Third Wheel,” you hung out with two couples, that makes you a “Spare Tire.”
Person 3: “Hey!…Don’t worry man, you’ll find someone soon enough!”

When the third and fourth wheeler have already been designated to a couple. All the wheels on your average convertible have been taken. All others who join the vehicle become "spare wheels," they're just there.
Person 1: "Yo man it was so awkward yesterday, I decided to join Jerome and Tyrell who were third wheeling super hard yesterday."
Person 2:"Nah bruh, you was hardcore spare wheeling yesterday."
Person 2:"Nah bruh, you was hardcore spare wheeling yesterday."

This is the person in your life who you are just friends with, but they are not in the friend zone. You spend a lot of time together. You wouldn’t even say you’re in the talking stage, a platonic friendship but you are pretty sure both of you could maybe see it being more, but neither person is willing to cross the line to make it more than just a friendship. But you always know in the back of your head that they are an option. Like a spare tire… you know they are there but aren’t gonna use it if you don’t need to
Person 1 “hey are you an Andy a thing?”
Person 2 “no not really, he’s just my spare right now, but maybe that will change”
