OK... for various reasons I'm looking for a full-size spare for Dora Sue, our 1995 Subaru Legacy wagon. Right now the best deal I've found is about $75; I'm wondering if I can do a bit better, especially up in eastern PA, but central MD (west of the bay, east of Hagerstown) and northern VA are fine too. In this price range I'm obviously looking for *used* parts.

Wheel specs: plain steel wheel, 14 inch diameter, 5.5 inch width, circular holes (roundels in annulo for those of you who understand blazon) -- if you're interested, go here and look for part number S68688. Preferably black, but I'll take silver if that's what's available. The reason I want this particular wheel is that it matches the others and the existing hubcap doesn't fit anything else.

Tire specs: 185/70R14, prefer blackwall b/c that's what the others are.

Trying to search online has given me a nasty headache and not much by way of results. I've got one auto-recycling place looking (the one in Leesburg) and they'll call me back tomorrow. Any help that friends can provide would be most appreciated.

EDIT 18 Jul 07: Got the wheel in Upper Marlboro and the tire in Manassas. I just wish this hadn't been as complicated as it turned out to be.
