Spare tire question.
I did a search for this, and I didnt find the answer that I was looking for, so my question is, what spare tire should I be looking for in the junk yard. I have a 1991 Formula with the 16x8 wheels and rear disc brakes. Could anyone tell me the size and what car i might find a spare that I could use in? I still have the (what i'm assuming to be) original inflateable spare, minus the air cannister, and its done, bald and dry rotted. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Re: Spare tire question.
Your best option is one from a 4th gen, since the tire is more likely to be good & not dry-rotted.
Where are you in TX? I have a good spare, but shipping might make it cheaper for you to get locally.
