Urgent! I need to borrow a spare tire

Hi, I ordered my new tires already several weeks ago but the delivery has been postponed. I now discovered that the spare tire I though I fixed is leaking. I scheduled a little trip to Eureka this weekend, and another friend is waiting for me there. Is there any chance I can borrow a spare tire, almost any size is ok, "stock" would be best? If I happen to use it, I will buy it or give proper compensation, but chances are pretty low, as I will do at most some dirt road, nothing a passenger car would not do... if somebody is available, I need to pick it up tonight (Friday)

Thanks
Alessio

Alessio with your all wheel drive, you need a matching spare.

well, a spare tire does not need to match...at least as long as it is just a spare :)

only to reach (at slow speed if necessary) the next shop where I can fix / buy etc... Only for the weekend before the new tires arrive...

For this reason I said the stock size is best anyway.
