Default Rim for spare tire (C2) - I have knock offs

I am looking to put something in my spare tire tub- I need a rim and tire or just rim. I have aftermarket knock offs on the car. I need something inexpensive to use as a spare tire.

the 78 to 82 spare rims work great on a mid year they clear the calipers and are a 15 by 6 inch rim so work great have a couple $100 each

I have a '66. I was told that knockoffs are by the year and '66 has its own style. How can I verify if it would work?

the knock off cone is held on with the 5 regular wheel lug nuts you just remove the cone and attach a regular wheel
