Have to disagree with the placement of the "doughnut", if you car's manual says you have a "slip differential" rear end assembly, you should replace the flat with a FRONT tire on the rear end. Driving with 2 unmatched tires in the rear can cause serious damage to your rear end assembly and that kind of repair can run the same, if not more than that of the transmission depending on the type of vehicle - this is especially true with the newer Camaros.
