Jim
    Could you be more specific on the spare you bought.  Size, make and all.
By space-saver do you mean the ones you have to be inflated before use?
 
The Temporary spare in my 1988 Mustang is a T135/70D16 with a diameter of
23" - I'm not sure if the center hole will fit I did not pull it out of the
car.
 
The Temporary spare in my 1991 Escort is a T155/70D14 with a diameter of 20"
- center hole is too small to fit Tiger front hub
 
I have another Temporary spare possibly from a 93 Escort wagon that is a
P155/80D13 with a diameter of 22" - Tiger front hub fits this wheel.
This one is closest to the Tiger tire size.
 
The lug nut stud holes in all of these are larger than the Tiger so you
would have to be careful mounting this type spare.
 
As with any alternate spare it has to fit the Tiger Front hub and you need
to be careful about the lug stud hole size on the wheel.

RE  spare tires
 
At the United in Rockland, ME, I bought a Mustang space-saver spare. PLENTY
of room.
 
It will get me off the highway and to help. That's all we really need, Still
have original spare but wouldn't want to trust it. Too old !
