[MR2] MKII Spare Wheel/Tire

[Steve Bagdon]

Personally, I'd get a steel full-sized spare. I once found a set of oem
steels for a '91, that I used for snow rims, so it's doable. Actually,
the 14x6J45(?) fronts are easy to find (Camrys?), if I wanted 4 of
those. Yet I wanted to maintain front/rear 6/7" offset, and it's the
14x7J45(?) that was a bear to find a match to. I finally found someone
with an oem set, so I ran with that one.

Since it's a minispare, if it mounts, turns, and has the same diameter,
it'll get you to the tire store. If you want to turn, go faster then
50mph, and use it for more then one trip... get a full-sized spare.

Doesn't the owner's manual specify the spare tire size?  Would that be
enough for junk yards, or do they want a car make and model?
