spare tire replacement?

[jdreher]

I need to replace a spare tire from a '94 Corolla. I don't necessarily need the OEM spare tire, just a rim and tire that will fit on the car in an emergency. It's not my car and I'm not too familiar with Toyotas so can someone help me out with the sizing for it? Is there anything funky with the bolt pattern or anything else I should know before going to the strip yard to pick one out?

Thanks.

Nah, most of them are the standard 4x100pcd bolt pattern. Personally, I'd grab a rim from a wreckers with no rubber (cheaper), go and get 2 new front tyres (unless rear need replacing), use one of the tyres you just took off for the spare and sell the other on a forum for whatever price you paid for the rim at the wreckers. You get a free, full size spare for the price of 2 new tyres.
