Also be sure the center hole for the hub fits both the back and front of the car.  Some of these are smaller than those on a Tiger or Alpine.  It may fit the rear, but not the front.  Or the other way.  Or something.

Happy hunting!

A possible solution to what to use for a spare and rim has been used by member Jim Armstrong and I hope he will chime in here.

What Jim did was to find a compact spare from a 74-78 Mustang. The bolt circle is the same as the Tiger, so it bolts on without
any difficulty. It also takes up less room in the boot, being a compact spare. Seems like a good solution for those who can do
without total authenticity.

As had been said, make sure you are carrying the proper lug nuts to attach your spare.

Cheers,
