The cheapest option is the Falken SN-807. Any decent tyre shop can order them in for you

There is also the Dunlop Aquajet which has a period tyre thread pattern, they are more than double the price and probably would have to come from a mini shop

Falken make a basic 145 10 in tyre which is what I use on my Cooper S steel rim just on the spare in the boot so it fits. But I use 165 Yokohama A008’s, which are a far better tyre, on the 4 tyres on the car.

Bob Jane seems to be a major Falken supplier. They should be able to order them in.

Be aware that if you are using a mag wheel as a spare in the boot and it’s more than 4.5in wide it still may not fit even with the skinny 145 tyre.
