Buying a spare tyre for a Laguna

My new Laguna Tourer came with a tyre inflation kit - I am concerned about this with a long trip to Aberdeenshire next month and think I should buy a spare tyre.

There is room for this under the boot floor. I have Michelin Energy Saver tyres on 205/60 R16 wheels with Renault wheel style "Broadway alloy wheel" (hope this means more to you then to me).

My question is should I buy an identical spare from my local Renualt dealer or can I pop down to Halfords and just get something similar - will they all be the same fit (ie the same length fixing bolts etc?).

Try to get an identical wheel and tyre. 205/60 R16 is unusual. The normal size is 205/55 R16.
