Spare tire
It's hard to look for a used spare tire for a 2015 camaro. Does anyone know what non-camaro spare tire will fit a 2015 camaro? Or does anyone know where I can get a cheap spare tire for less than $50. Chevy sucks. It's doesn't even give customer a spare tire for Camaro. This will be the last time I buy Chevy car.

FYI, MANY car manufacturers, U.S and foreign, have gone from a spare tire to giving you a mini air compressor with fix a flat goop, or equipping the car with run flat tires. It's to save money, and to save weight for better gas mileage.
So don't get mad at Chevy, or GM, it's the new standard. Also, if you have a V6 model, a spare tire was an add on option when bought new.
Anyway, have you looked on ebay yet, or craigslist? Look for ones to fit a 2010-2015. Spares come up for sale from time to time.

What would you do if your tire had a slash on the sidewall? Or if it's punctured by a large nail? That rubber solution won't help. I've been there an done that. Plus, the tire weighs less than 30lbs anyway so how much gas millage would it cost? GM, including Chevy are cutting cost by taking away a spare tire doesn't make sense.

What you would do is call for a tow, which yes, is stupid for those of us who can change a tire. Keep in mind, the vast majority of new car buyers wouldn't be able to change their own tire if their life depended on it. Plus,the car manufacturers aren't worried about when the cars get resold.
And you're focusing on the gas mileage of just one car. A fraction of a fraction of one mpg, means many total mpg's when a car manufacturer is selling millions of cars a year. Every little bit helps them meet their gas mileage standards.
