2003 Matrix XR Spare Tire Specs/Replacement?

[fuzzymoto]

My friend has a 2003 Matrix XR (front wheel drive). She had a flat early on, put on the spare and had a local tire shop mount a replacement tire. Unfortunately NOW, close to two years later she noticed she has no spare tire. Apparently the tire shop lost it or something else happened to it over the year or so since she last looked.

So now she needs to replace the spare wheel and tire. She want's the original donut and not a full-size spare of any sort.

What are the specs/sizes of the OEM spare wheel and tire?

What other Toyota models spare tires will fit on her car?

Where can she get a replacement for both, preferably on-line?

How bad will a dealer slam her for both?

Thanks

Anyone?

sorry, i'm not one to be answering, but my only suggestion is getting quote from the dealer, and probably checking junkyards.

Short of going outside to look at mine, I couldn't find the info you need, but I do have advice on where to find it.

On the b-pillar behind the driver's door, there should be a tag that has all the tire information on it.

Thanks I'll check.

It's in the manual too.

I just happened to be working in the back of the Matrix tonight, so if you can't find the info:
