Does anyone have or know of a modern day car spare tire that would fit a 4.5" bolt pattern and have correct offset for disc brakes?

I'm talking about a skinny tire, narrow rim style of spare.

I don't have room in my spare tire well due to a modification I made.

Input?
 
Toyota Venzas spare tires are 18" 5x114.3 with a 165/90/18.Not sure on rim width but they are skinny.i can check later for you.Tire is obviously to tall but rim might work for ya.
 
I do know that stratus/breeze/cirrus wheels fit on a smblt pattern dart[4"] and the intrepids fit the bigger pattern[4.5]
 
I can tell you that I can NOT fit a full size spare tire in the tirewell of my 08 charger
 
A ford escape spare wheel will work. 17" 5x4.5 and a 2.83" hub register (ours is 2.8", IIRC).

The tire will be too tall.

So, this:

with a tire like a 125-70-17. These are common on Scion TCs and probably some other models.
 
I know the space saver spare from a 96 Towncar fits my car.
I don't know it will fit whatever disc brake assemblies you have.
 
I found mine from a 88 Diplomat/Grand Fury/ RWD New Yorker.
Fits great in the "A" spare tire well with a nice flat floor.
73-up mopar front disc brakes.

The brakes on fatty are Wilwood 13" up front and 12" in back....I'm trying to find one type that fits both ends.

I'm probably wishing for a golden goose but someone else has had to come down this road before....

the escape wheel should work for that. 17" wheel should clear 13" brakes.
