I would like to make up a spare tire to keep in the garage so I can at least use the car while the flat is being repaired. What make or kind of wheel rim will fit this car with five lugs that wont cost an arm or leg? Will another model donut tire fit?

Salvage yards will have the proper wheel and tire for your car, and they will know if there are others that will work. One thing to watch out for, if your car has anti-lock brakes, the outer circumference of all four tires must be exactly the same.

Temporary spare tires will be skinnier but they do have the same circumference.
