I have managed to get an 18" spare wheel that fits with the same size tyre as the stock wheels 225 45 R18. The tyre is also not directional so can fit on either side of the car. It was only £40 GBP for the wheel and tyre including delivery, so well pleased. I have tried it on the car and clearance is fine all round and fits in the wheel well in the boot no problem. I have even made a securing bracket out of a piece of 8mm rod and an old sink plug holder I had lying around in the garage. Works a treat. The wheel is off an old Mazda 6 sport, it has the same stud pattern 5x114.3 and tyre size. The offset is only 4mm different to the mazda. I bought a spigot ring to fit but don't think I needed it, it went on easily without. A cheap price for the comfort of having a spare for an emergency even if it is for short term use only.
