I grabbed the space saver and replaced the shredded tire with a 2010 caliber rubber. Iirc that model had 225/50r17 so this is much larger diameter than what would have come with my car, therefore doesn't fit in my spare tire well.

I also grabbed a full size just because I could only find a couple models with 5x100 in my yard.

I could surely hog that center bore out in one way or another but that's about when I realized I'll need shorter wheel bolts because the steel wheels aren't a third as thick as the alloys.

I found a pair of 15" passat alloys that should be similar enough, not worried about looks because of my pizza pan wheel covers.

I may look for a 5x4.5 wheel with a similar offset because I have 1 wheel spacer/ adapter. It's hub centric for the car side but lug centric on the wheel side. Also has studs for lug nuts.
