Help Needed! Spare wheel for 19" staggered fitment

Hi everyone! I searched the forum but didn't find much information related to this, henceforth, this thread. Forgive me for my ignorance, but could anyone suggest as to what size in a donut wheel should be used for a staggered 19" fitment? Or do you suggest that I should simply buy a 19" tire matching the front spec(245/35/R19)?

Any help would be appreciated!! Thanks in advance.

Knowing the quality of roads in Punjab, I would recommend that you get a full size spare tire.

Thank you for your opinion, IronM! What you say is correct, but the fact is that I'm residing in Chandigarh. The roads here are much better and whenever I have to travel on longer routes, I use my ML or S350. Hence, the donut space saver makes sense to me since I won't be driving over 50Km/H anyway. Cheers!

True, The roads in Chandigarh are pretty good. I was there this past winter to visit family. Its definitely one of the nicer parts of that region. Are there any places to test out your vehicles out there?

Chandigarh's the best place to be! Not just saying that because I was born and brought up here, but the fact remains that it's indeed very clean, much safer, more peaceful and much more beautiful than any other city. Anyway, as regards the places to test one's vehicle, there are a couple of places for eg. IT park route, Zirakpur fly-over, Outskirts of Mohali to name a few. Besides these, after 2a.m., you can test it anywhere you wish to, just got to be very careful. I did 210kmph(3:30am)once on an open road and it was awesome!
