Try a wrecking yard.
The "doughnut" rim, NO.
You can go buy a spare tire and rim. The dealership can try to comp you somewhat, IF they decide to do so. When you buy a used car, you buy it "AS IS - NO WARRANTY". If you didn't have the foresight to look the vehicle over (and I wonder what else you missed if you missed the lack of a spare tire), that's not the dealer's fault.
sure you can
always have the weight of the tire and rim on the cable when cranking

No, a regular tire will not fit on a donut rim. Donut rims, or spare tire rims, are typically designed for temporary use and are smaller in diameter and width compared to standard tires. They also often have a different bolt pattern and sidewall height, making it unsafe to use a regular tire on a donut rim. Always use the appropriate tire for your specific rim size and type.
As long as they have the same amount of lugs or holes on the rim, they will fit.
Yes, it comes from the factory with a full size spare and wheel rim identical to the ones on the 4 road tires.
