Anyone know of a spare tire that will fit on a C5? I would like to have have one just in case when I'm out late-night with my non-run-craps..

Where would you put it? And would you carry 2? One that's a 17" rim and one that's an 18"?

Personally, I've put the MX's on and I'm going to carry around an air compressor and fix-a-flat or a tire plug kit. If anyone's got other ideas, I'd love to hear 'em.

I checked out the donut from the Fbody but it is only 16".
Would love to find something that fits. A Jag fits, but those are a bit rare.
