Inexpensive spare wheel

I wish to buy a cheap spare wheel in 17x7.5+48. It is just a spare so I don't want/need to spend much on it but by the same token I don't want something that will shit itself if it hits a pothole. What would be the cheapest brand at Tirerack that is a known brand? I have not heard of any of the brands at the cheap end when sorting price cheap to expensive.

Thanks

I did something similar for my Celica. You could probably find a cheap 16" steelie for the wheel, then find a cheap tire to fit. Or check a local tire shop and see if they have a tire they can cut you a deal on.
