if you ordered a car with either magnums or rallye wheels, what did you get for a spare tire? plain rim or matching wheel?

the 5 rally wheel restorations are amusing.

How easy/difficult is it to find original full size spares? For 70 e-body. Price ranges?
Is the rim size 14 x 5.5? (for either ralley or road wheel)
What is the tire? a Polyglas F70-14?

I know space saver prices and availability but what about full size spares?

F70-14 Polyglas '70-'71 e-bodies
14x6.0" (plain steel) wheels & spare with hub caps or wheel covers
&
14x5.5" (black plain steel) spare when "Rallye or Road" wheels were on the car.
unless
it was a convertible or had the OPTIONAL "space saver" spare.

Full size spare tire matched what was on the car.
The '70 5.5" (plain steel) wheels are easier to find than the 6.0" (plain steel) wheels.
