Get a cheap black wheel, (rock crawler, d window) people call then by different names. Should be less than $100

Bump, still looking for  a 5x5 wheel that will fit my JK , i have a 35" tire, used should be sufficient to get me off a trail if needed, just looking for a wheel, and i will get danny to mount it and im good to go. 

Try one of those side of the road used tire/rim shops. You don't need a alloy rim for your spare, see if they have  a stock steel Jeep take off rim. You should be able to land one of them for $50 or less. I was going to buy 4 mint condition alloy Jeep rims for $100.... patience will reap you coin in your pocket. In the worst case, if your going to TN and you don't have one bring your 33". If you leave your spare at camp, like most of us, your going to rely on using someone elses tire to get you back to camp anyways.

The black steel Cragars I have (17x9) were less than $80 at Discount Tire.  They did have to order them from California though.

JK is 5x5.5"...IIRC

Check CL, hardlinecrawlers, Pirate4x4 and JF for a couple of weeks and you'll stumble on a deal.  You may get a tire with it already mounted on a wheel.
