I've got a spare that I believe was from an old T-bird (not sure
where it came from). It is made by Goodyear and called
"Custom Mini-spare". I'm guessing mine is pretty old as it's
labeled as an F78-14. The tire is collapsible and takes up only
about another inch over the rim in diameter. Since brick's have
their own onboard air tank (assuming you have air doors), if
you get a flat, you use your air chuck to air chuck line (have
to make seperately) and fill the spare up.
