89-92 spare tire needed!!

Need to get a '89-92 "space saver" spare to fit 3rd Gens with the PBR calipers and 16-inch wheels.

If anyone has this item sitting around, please let me know, I hate to drive cross-country butt-naked without a spare tire!

Thanks for any help!!

Still looking for a spare for the '92 Z28 ... a 4th Gen spare would also fit.

Here's a summary of the spare tires suitable for 16-inch alloy wheels and PBR brakes. Still need one guys...

Well ED,
All I got is the 10 spoke alum wheels.
Not the center one, or any off a fourth gen.
Looking forward to living in the cold?
Too bad you don't have Trans Ams.
I've got parts for those.

See ya soon,

George

Thanks George, yes I recall the previous time I was in Kingman a couple of years ago and our '92 Z28 had a thick layer of frost on it in the a.m. when I'd walk down to the Silver Spoon for a 3-egg Greek omlette ... by then it was about 8 and I felt comfortable in a light jacket ... sunny and about 55 degrees just great! The odd thing is about the spare is that I've seen several that would fit during the past few years, but didn't know I needed one, sigh. BTW, our arrival date might be Dec 20-22 due to Matson re-adjusting it's arrival date in Long Beach. Bet my dogs will be happy to see me.... Yes, I'll be happy to pick up a fitting spare -- even if it came from an exotic Trans-Am!

No problem Ed,
I had thought that I was watching the dogs for over a month.
I was still thinking you were coming out in January.
With my dogs keeping your's company, they just may turn into a pack, and not want to be by themselves anymore.
Hey, I never asked, are they diggers?
Not that it matters, just wondering if I can put them to work on some foundation trenches I want dug.

Later,

George

Hi George - my Camaro guard dogs are the reason nobody has messed with my 3rdGens while they were parked in a carport one short block away from a low-income housing project. Here's a snapshop of the cute one. The original plan was to have the guard dogs protect your Firebirds while I was house-shopping and living in a no-pet rental, but Tom's place became available and he said it's OK to keep our family together, so a couple months magically became a couple weeks. Thanks Tom! Sure, they'll dig your trenches, just lay a trail of bones...

Wow Ed,
What a beautiful dog!
I pictured a bunch of froth around the lips, and bright glowing red eyes.
Looks like a loving dog.
Can't wait to see them up close at the airport!
I hope Tom can put up with them for part of a day.
He doesn't have dogs.
Just cats. Might be why his truck got broke into.
I told him he should get a dog.
That's one reason why I have dogs.
They are a pretty good theft deterrent.
I have three.

Have a good one,

George
