If it's a space saver from an L405, there is also a polystyrene piece available to put underneath it.

Throw away the space saver and replace with 4 tins of tyre weld and listen to their merry tune as they rattle about |

Drilling a hole in a suitable off cut of wood to sandwich between the wheel and the holding down bolt seems easy to me.
