Stowaway space saver tire vs. other types

Hi,
I have a 86 camaro irocz with RPO n65 which is the stowaway space saver tire. My question is: what other type of spare tire will fit in my car that fits properly in the rear hatch space as well?
Thanks!

Super, thanks!! Is that the only option? No temporary spare tire that could fit on the side of the trunk?

There are multiple spares that will fit in the well on the passenger side, but they will all need some form of inflation.

Thanks for the pics! MY car came equipped (N65) with the Stowaway space saver tire. S0 any of the other types should fit without an issue? I always thought I had to get the same....
