Spare tire help

I see various recommendation for a donut spare from a Honda Civic. Then somebody will post that it won't clear the brakes on my 2006 S.
Does anybody know for sure which donut spare will work?

the MINI spare , I gave up on trying . None will fit on the front, the brakes are too big to clear donuts, so if you get a front flat you gotta swap the tires.
