Default Space Saver / Spare Wheel

Has anybody got either a spare space saver wheel or any spare alloy wheel knocking about that I could borrow for a few weeks?

If the space saver doesn't fit on the rear (as can't remember if they only fit on the front or rear axle), a spare alloy wheel would do.
Condition/tyre doesn't matter, as the car won't be driven in this time - will just sit in its garage. At the most, it will just be moved out of and back into the garage.

Just want to store the car while I have one of my rear wheels repaired, and not sure where to leave an axle stand under the car so make it completely safe. Just would feel better having an actual wheel there.

Don't really want to use mine as it's never been fitted

Mods/Admin - if this should be in the Wanted section, please move

Am based in Leicester, but happy to travel ish local to collect and re-deliver back to you, or am down at Twickenham/Richmond for the day tomorrow if anyone is local to that area of London.

Cheers!

Cheers Guys

Kettering would have been ideal, but got someone to help me locate a decent place to put an axle stand underneath

You can also rest the back of the car on the rear subframe tubing safely.
I remember putting up cars on bricks to remove all wheels... But don't do it as it is very dangerous!
