Ladies and gentlemen, for the nth time my wife has hit a pot-hole and presented me with a rapidly deflating 225/40 R19 tyre on her RX8! I have managed to remove said wheel and tyre ( there is not much ground clearance with a flat tyre!) and will get wheel/tyre checked over and replaced as necessary. I understand RX8 spacesavers are scarce and was wondering whether there are any other wheel/tyre combinations that would do the job as an emergency get you home item?

Thanks for any suggestions.

Grumpy, I don't know if this will be of any help for you, but it's helped me in the past when looking for wheels that would be a good fit, but not necessarily for that car. See if you can find something suitable on http://www.wheelfitment.eu/ then see if you've got anyone breaking one of the alternatives near you where you could possibly try it before going ahead with purchase.
Thanks for the link, much food for thought.
