Default Where could I find a Track Model Spare?

I put Track model Brembos on my Touring and now my spare wont fit over the brakes. I had a spare lined up before for $50 but the deal didnt go through, so I am in need of a spare. Where would be a good place (online maybe) that I could possibly pick one up? Pretty sure I have emergency roadside service w/my insurance, but I dont feel comfortable without a spare...

Go online (Discount Tires) and pick up a cheap rim and cheap tire.

that would be way more expensive not to mention that it wouldn't fit where the factory spare goes

I believe that enkei makes a lightweight spare wheel. I don't know if it would clear Brembo's but still it wouldn't hurt to look into it. Its about the same size as your current spare and lighter weight doesn't hurt.

nope, but the 17' oem spare will fit - both over the brembos and in the trunk.

i thought the donut that comes with the non-track models will not clear the brembos.

to clarify, non-brembo models come with a 16" spare. If the car came from the factory w/ brembos, then it has the 17" spare.
