donut spare
Temporary replacement wheel
A donut spare is the compact temporary tire found in many vehicles, smaller and narrower than standard tires.
Named for its distinctive shape, it's designed only for short-distance, low-speed driving to reach a repair shop: I limped to the mechanic on the donut spare.
Also called a space-saver spare.
