I put a small spare in my Tiger. I went down to my local wrecking yard and
bought one from a late model mustang. You can also look into tempos and
escorts etc. I made a cardboard template of my bolt pattern so I could
match the hubs and wheels while I was wondering around. One thing to watch
out for though, some of the small spares might have the correct bolt
pattern but the diameter of the opening for the hub is too small.
