Default Okay to replace T115 spare with a T105?

My 94 Accord was stolen and they took the spare. Specifications are for a T115 spare. I have a T105 spare from an old Acura Integra. Would I be taking my life in my hands if I used the thinner tire? I don't drive long distances and could avoid freeways with the spare if I had to use it.

Also, does anyone even know if the T105 would fit on my car. I'd love being able avoid changing the tire just to check.

I don't plan to keep this car much longer so one alternative might be just to buy one from AAA if I get a flat.

Thanks

I think the wheel bolt-circle-diameter is different (Accord vs. Integra). Just measure across bolt-to-bolt.

Someone with a Civic would be able to use the Integra's spare.

You were absolutely right. The Accord bolt circle is a half-inch larger. Thanks for the tip for the quick & easy check.
