Aftermarket Space Saver Wheels

Hey all,
I was wondering if any aftermarket wheel manufacturers may have made any non interceptor style Space Saver Wheels? Maybe a mini version of the TE37 lol?

Its the first thing you see when you pop the bonnet on an MR2. No doubt a very very limited market for these things but it could be another thing to customise/personalise on your ride :)

    HSV come with a 5 spoke space saver. I think it might have been made by Enkei. Pity about the size and stud pattern though.

    A mazda rx7 space saver might work for the SW20. Also made by Enkei and looks like a multi spoke wheel.

    Oh thats awesome. I must admit that HSV one looks pretty snazzy. Nothing worse than having to limp home with the spare space saver. They are a bit of an eye sore normally.

    rx7 space saver enkei's are awesome, they are a forged rim and clear big brakes easily. I wish you luck finding them tho, as they make for popular front runners for drag racing skylines etc that dont want to swap front brakes.

    Any reason you stick with the space saver?
     
    I ditched mine in replacement for a full size spare wheel.
     
    I actually have an old, slightly buckled Work Meister 17x8 Wheel with a 205/40/R17 tyre under there now.

    Any reason you stick with a space saver at all?  What's wrong with a "Spare Tyre In A Can"?  We intend to trust to that on our trip to Tassie for the Nat's - cause we'll need all the room we can get in the car . . .

    Looks like RX8 spacer saver might also fit SW20? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/MAZDA-RX8-SPACE-SAVER-WHEEL-ALLOY-5-STUD-SUIT-MX5-5-STUD-2003-2004-2005-2006-/251279800103?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3a81717727
