Something happened while typing the post. Just posted on it own somehow. Here is what I originally wanted posted.
I bought a 2000-2006 Lincoln LS 16 inch donut spare tire for my 57 and it does not fit. The ad stated 5x4 bolt pattern so I thought I had ordered the correct one. Can anyone tell what donut will fit the 57? Thanks in advance.

You need one from a town car, with the 5x4.5 pattern.  The smaller lincoln wil fit early Mopar with 4 inch pattern, but not Fords.
