Wheel for full size spare tire
Hi Guys
So I recently had a flat tire which was deemed un-fixable and ended replacing 2 tires (2 similar tread tires on the same axle to avoid any future issues due to difference in tire tread). I had the bad tire disposed off and kept the good tire to turn into a full size spare, since it had only 20,000 miles on it (Michelin primacy). I tried looking for a wheel for this tire on eBay but all I see is new wheels which cost more than I am willing to spend. Where would I be able to buy a wheel for this tire that won't break the bank? It's going to be a spare and won't really see daylight much of the time anyway. Also, what size wheel should I be looking for? This is a 2008 Maxima SL with OEM wheels/tires.Thanks.

Maximas came with 2 different size tires.
If the tire is 17 inches, the rim is 17" x 7" with an offset of 35mm
If the tire is 18 inches, the rim is 18" x 7.5" with an offset of 40mm
Check you local salvage/junk yards for one.
