Do you mean the original BFGoodrich collapsible spare?
I don't think they have made that old style for decades. Any that you would find would NOT be safe to use.
Most of us carry no spare. We carry a plug kit, spare tire air-in-a-can sealant or just call for a tow truck.

Yes Larry,
I meant how easy is to find a new collapsible? Not for instrumental use, but for decorative motives: not nice to have a clean wheel with an old/cracked tire.

Bianchito,
another option is to buy a spare tire cover with the DeTomaso logo on it to hide the tire. Hall has (had?) them on sale.

they show up on eBay now and then, and go for $200-$400 dollars. Seems they are the same as the Mustang crowd's spare, and for their concours restorations, they will pay big bucks to buy one.
A cover is cheaper

I'll let ya use mine for concours for big bucks, please!
Bianchito,
I found a perfect condition spare and inflator bottle on this site ... purchased it from a very kind fellow Pantera lover for 140.00 .. They are around just post a WANTED in the parts section. I think its easier to get the tire with the rim.
PS 140,000 people at the F1 Sunday ... WOW.
