Its recommended for your donut spare to be ran 50 miles. Donut spares can be driven passed that limit but it can lead to unsafe driving conditions or there may be a possibility of suspension components breaking and/or not working properly.

If it is a full sized spare it should be the same as your other 4 tires and last just as long as they did.

By donut tire, do you mean one of those cheap spares now provided by car makers as standard equipment instead of a real fifth tire.
