The rule of thumb is that tires over 6 years old should not be put into service. If your temporary spare is like mine, it's as old as your car. Mine's a Nokian, looks like new, still holds air, and at best will last only long enough to get to the tire store.
Sorry your tire got nailed. Drive a little as possible and slowly on your spare. Read the spare's sidewall. 85kph (about 50 mph) is probably the top speed.
