Spare wheel for a new Honda HR-V?

Honda do not have a spare wheel yet. I want to buy a steel rim as spare. Original wheel is 7J x 17 et46 5 x 114.3 PCD. Are there other makers compatible wheels to buy?

The diameter of the HR-V wheel well is 655mm, which matches the diameter of the 17" tyre but means it will be a very snug fit and will protrude into the luggage deck because the tyre is wider than the depth of the well. The circumference of the 17" tyre is 2,080mm. This forces you into a smaller wheel and tyre. I know a Honda Jazz 15" wheel with 195/65 R15 wheel and tyre will fit because it fits my Jazz that is on 17" wheels and 205/40 R17 tyres, but they are smaller diameter than the 205/55s on the HR-V.
