Nice car!
MG wire wheels use an innertube. Once that is punctured then no amount of fix-a-flat is going to bring it back. You have to break the bead, remove the innertube, and replace it. I can't tell you how many times in college I had to do this.
Also, the MGA's use a spline-drive wheel hub with a knock-off hub. You're just not going to find a compact tire.
If you really need cargo space, consider a trunk mounted luggage rack, but remember at the end of the day you are driving a 50 year old sports car.
