Limited use spares: donut edit

I'm noticing very few instances of the word "donut" in the article. In fact, the last sentence of the opening paragraph of the article read:

"some spare tires ("space-saver" and "donut" types)"

This states that a "space-saver" and "donut" are two different types of a spare tires. However, there is no explanation on the difference between a space-saver and a donut.

The second bullet of the section, "Today," describes a "limited use" spare tire as being known also as a "spacesaver" or "compact." Again, this implies that a donut is different and not in the same category as a "limited use."
