Yeah if I was down there I would have ran my Spare down to you as well. I use Alex's tire shop. It's the big green building by the K mart!

Looks like tandem axle
If you can't find the wheel and tire you can always buy a piece of chain jack up the axle and chain the axle up to the frame to get home
