Awesome, so it looks like you don't loose any space at all. Rock on. Wjere did you get the tire?

For now I just plan to use this car around town, so I'm unsure I need a spare, but of that changes it is good to know that I won't loose much space

From personal experience: even for driving around town (in a loose sense), it's good to have a spare tire, because the stock LRR Michelins are prone to sidewall damage. Between the two Bolts I have driven, I have had FOUR blowouts over 47K miles. With a spare tire and some tools on board it will take you 20 minutes to get the car back on the road. Otherwise, it may cost you a few hours that you don't have.

I carry a full size spare wheel (the same type as the 4 other wheels - but not the stock type), which was $450-ish at Tire Rack including the TPMS sensor, a TPMS relearning tool, 4 new lug nuts + special key for them, and also mounting, balancing, and shipping costs. But you can also get a donut for about $150 incl. shipping on eBay.

You started earlier that you had LT. If the car doesn't have Super Cruise nor Bose, turn probably you'd have enough room.
In my case, I remove the false floor so I have the room all the way down.

BTW, the spare tire is under that padding. You can see the rim.

Well, I cannot see the rim, but I will take your word for it

I assume the spare is in that "tub" at the lowest level in the cargo compartment? How did the tire manage to finagle its way into there? I tried with a donut that was like 1-1/2" smaller than the regular wheel, and it was still an inch too wide to fit in.

Hey the Bolt has a lot of room for luggage compared to my Miata trunk Here is a photo with one carry on bag.
