Spare full size spare

as I am new to the site sorry if this as been asked before----- but does any body know if a wheel for somebody elses car ie ford,vaux,toyota,nissan etc,etc fit my 2008 1400 16inch steel wheels civic as a full size spare, I would like to get a honda one but as it will only be a spare cost is most important, so at least I can go round to breakers and not give the game away, for sure all breakers know about the civics lack of spare and will price as such ( I know how breakers prices work) a long time ago I wanted a window motor for a porsche I was quoted £75 , then I found it was the same one fitted to a VW PASSAT /AUDI 100 so when I rang around and asked for one for a VW/AUDI I was asked for £25 I just feel if the breakers know the score they will bump the price up knowing that a lot of civic owners are on the look out for one.

I wouldn't like to say, but first of all it would need to be a five stud wheel with the right pcd. Then the wheel would need to be the correct width and offset. The diameter of the wheel and tyre combination would need to be same as those fitted to your car. And the width of the tyre would need to be the same.

Better buy one off another Civic I think.

Full size doesn't fit in the boot well. It has to be a space saver to fit in.
