Where can I get a cheap spare wheel?

I have recently bought a Mazda 2, but it has only been supplied with a tyre repair kit. Can you tell me where’s the cheapest place to buy a spare wheel?

Best thing to do is to try to find a same size spare wheel from a scrappie or nationwide parts finder. I can assure you from experience that the tyre repair kit supplied with Mazdas does not work at all even on a small puncture, and if used will completely ruin the tyre.
