Just giving this some thought; what you need are the spare tires from the heaviest all wheel drive car with the same bolt pattern as your car.

The AWD cars need a spare with same diameter at the other tires, and with a heavier vehicle the spare has to be built to handle that.

4 of those tires on a Metro might last for a year or 5 while giving the gearing for good mileage.

There were AWD versions of many minivans too, check out their spares.
