Spare Tire and Rim needed

I have purchased a 1989 RX-7 Convertible.

The spare tire/rim is missing. IS there any suggested websites I could purchase a OEM or other replacement?

Thank You.

New to the forum so if this has been posted some where else on forum, my apologies...

it may sound dumb but are you looking in the right spot?
the tire is not in the trunk even though the jack and tools are there and it has an area that looks like a spare would go there
the tire is under the rear package tray INSIDE the car

I was picking up a hood locally and the guy wanted to trade me a spare tire for a hood, when I told him the tire is under the package tray and he found it he was so happy he gave me the really clean aluminum hood for $100.

Yep, you're right.

I had a 1990 RX7 coupe years ago and the spare was indeed located in the trunk.

Thank You for the post. Much Appreciated!!...

there are supposed to be tire wedges in the bag on top of the tire, to block your car up when you jack it. pretty neat of them to include that
