if i have my 17's (tires are 215/40/17) on and i got a flat, would it be alright to put on the stock 15 inch rim with a 185/60/15 snow tire just to get home. also would that tire fit in the spare tire well. i would check but i still dont have my baby.... tis another week at least

If your spare is a different height, its best to put it on the rear and put 2 of the same size on the front (or drive axle end if its not a celica) Running 2 different height tires not only handles funny, it causes your spider gears in the differential to turn all the time, like you are turning a corner, it would be OK for slow speeds and short distances.
