Best would be to use the ST170 space saver as that fits in the rear wheel well & will also fit over the rear wheels to the correct rolling radius - only thing it wont do is fit over the front brakes but if you have a puncture wheel off back to front & pop the ST170 space saver on the rear 
A spare FRS wheel with tyre will not fit in the well i'm afraid

Personally I ditched my ST170 space saver & bought a ST170 full size alloy but with slightly smaller tyre - 205/40/17 instead of 215/45/17 as the larger one doesnt fit but the 205 does nicely.
On the 2 occasions Ive had a flat there is no hurry to replace the flat as the other is fine for normal speeds etc.
