I've been trying to find a set of steel rims for my car, but can't seem to find any used. There are, however, a ton of space-saver wheel/tires available. Can I mount "regular" tires on the space-saver wheel and roll with them?

The bug guys run 'em with 135 x 13 tires on 'em, and that's about the widest you can go. But then, those guys don't give a sh*t about safety, only the "image". I'd avoid 'em like the plague. Besides, I doubt they're available in the 4 lug configuration used in the /4s. The Cap'n
