Default Need an 07 Camry spare tire

Hello, doing my dad a favor and trying to help him track down a used or reasonably priced new spare tire (rim&wheel). I'm in the South FL area 33141, thank you.

Might also ask at the Toyotanation site.

Might try Craigslist.

might go to any major junk yard in the area. almost guaranteed, there will be a Mexican tire shop next to it. That's your best price bet place.
E>G>, I bought set of 2 Hankooks, studdied, maybe 10% used, with rims, installed and balanced, for my 07 TCH, for grand total of $120.
Oh, and btw - you sure full spare will fit in? It's just a donut on mine, not enough room for full size spare. Many junk yards give donut spares away for free.

Sorry for being a little pedantic, but "rim" and "wheel" are the same thing.

What you need is a rim (aka wheel) and a tire.

Incidentally, those spare (donut) tires can be hard to find. The advice I have been getting from dealers is to use a regular tire as spare.

As you can see below, four owners agree.

Does a regular size tire fit in the spare tire well? - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Have you looked online? If he just planning on using it as a spare you can find some pretty inexpensive street tires. Check this out.
