You can absolutely fit the factory spare on the Edge ST with the performance brake package. I've done it.

You should have gotten a couple of guides with your vehicle, but no manual. You should have gotten a tire guide, quick reference, an owner's manual supplement, roadside card, and Sirius guide. If you want a paper copy of the owner's manual, you have to purchase it from Helm Publications. Same thing goes for dealers, they have to purchase from Helm as well. This does not come with the zippered pouch BTW. You can try playing around with different vehicles on the site and find a pouch. Just a heads up about putting together a proper manual in pouch though, it will just barely fit in your glove compartment. https://www.helminc.com/helm/Result.asp?Style=helm&Mfg=FMC&Make=FRD&Model=EDGE&Year=2021&Category=&Keyword=&Module=&selected_media=

I know it’s not that easy to tell because of the shadows and whatnot, but there’s about a 1/4” of space between the caliper and the inside of the front wheel. This is on the rear, and there is even more room than the front.

I decided to bite the bullet and buy the spare tire and tool kit. I just confirmed that the wheel fits over the brakes with plenty of space, over a 1/4” between the calipers and the wheel.

I've got the order guide for 2021 open on my computer and see where it says Includes Tire Inflator and Sealant Kit with the Summer Only Tires under the 401A option. It still makes me nervous ordering that kit though.

I know that when you get the performance brake package on the ST it doesn't come with a spare tire, but has anyone actually tried the 18" spare to see if it will fit over the brakes? Reason I'm asking, besides the spare tire kit being over $200, is that I recently had an 18" Ford wheel NOT fit over my front brakes. It was a 2018 Focus ST wheel. I'd assumed it would fit since the earlier snowflake Focus ST wheels which are also 18" fit. So before laying out the money for a spare tire kit, I'd like to know if anyone else has tried this and what the result was.
