Looking for spare tire for Avenger
I'm looking for a new spare tire for my 1999 Avenger. I 'lent' my spare to my son when he was parting out his Stealth and they needed wheels to get the frame up on the tow truck. It obviously stayed with the frame and I am without a spare now. Does anyone know where I might find one?

RE: Looking for spare tire for Avenger
are you wanting the donut? or a real rim?
These are OEM replacement wheels and I believe one is the donut...as its a 14"

Honestly, you could snag a fullsize rim at a junkyard for about 30-50$ anyhow...and a fullsize wheel is better anyhow....as you can worry less about getting the donut off in case your short of cash.

RE: Looking for spare tire for Avenger
Hello again. Since my last post in April, I put a wanted ad on Craigslist and received an email from a fellow that took his 'donut' off his 94 Dodge Daytona. He thinks that it will fit my car. I'm wondering if the bolt pattern would match up with my 99 Avenger. He is selling it in 'pretty good' condition for $30 (rim and wheel).... I will probably have to go out to his place and 'try it on'. My next question is: would it be a good idea (or is it possible) to put a regular tire on the 'donut' rim? Or am I barking up the wrong tree?

RE: Looking for spare tire for Avenger
Thanks for your input. I'm thinking my best bet is getting a regular rim and tire as the spare. I would definitely feel safer and can go farther on a regular tire than a 'donut'. If the bolt pattern works on this 'donut', then I'll just get it for safety sake until I find a regular tire. The trips to the junk yard have come up with a big fat '0'.
