Here is my situation.

This morning I had a tire go out on me. I was in traffic and by the time I got to the side of the road I had done a number on my tire. Thank god the wheel is still good. I changed it for my spare, which is a 14" bunt that came with the car. The spare was BALD. I opted to replace both front tires, as I had replaced the rear only 2 months ago. The fronts were only a year old. They had about 60% or more tread left. so I kept the drivers side tires in hopes of finding myself a spare rim.
So I ether need a spare wheel for the tire I saved or I at least need to go get a good used tire for my bunt.

Does anyone know of a reasonable option for a 16" wheel?

I thought about a 16" steel wheel from a VW. they're 5x112, but they have a 57mm hub. (MB hub is 66.6mm) even if I go to the trouble of boring out the hub, they have an offset in the mid 40mm range, and the w126 has a 25mm offset.

I could buy a random MB 16" wheel but its got a similare offset problem. and would cost more then a steel wheel.

I guess the simple solution is go get a new tire for the bunt, but I'd sure like to have a 16" spare with the same size tire as the rest of my wheels.
