Modern Ford Mustangs have a 5 on 4.5" bolt pattern. Toyota 5-lug pattern is the same too.

Yeah, but the hub centers on those models are smaller than the 2.81 Mopar hub.

Unfortunately, a flat tire means a tow truck for me. 
If your running a sure grip you should try to find a spare with the diameter as close as possible to your rear tires... Width don't matter but diameter does..

Never thought of that back in the day when I ruined a limited slip in a 1980 AMC. Two hour drive from home and had a flat. Replaced the flat with the space saver and headed home. Should have known better. I don't remember seeing any factory instructions on not to do this on a limited slip rear. Lesson learned
