I have an older Firebirds space saver spare, but I don't believe I know it's age range;
Do you, or anyone you happen to know the size(s) by year?

I also have some spare jacks that I got from a guy who collected Firebird parts in a parts deal (which is where my space saver spare comes from) - any tips to ID would help.

Did the 76 have a space saver? or were they an option?
My car is very early 77 (Sept 76) and according to my phs my car did not come with any spare. From what I understand there was a shortage of tires? The invoice simply states spare tire will be delivered when available. I have no idea on what the time frame was and for some reason assumed I had a full size tire.

76 had the red inflators. Look at your space saver brochure in your glove box lit. Shows all

I posted a similar question for the jack a few years ago. There are some pictures here.
