Buy a space saver spare wheel first, then go to them and tell them BMW supplied it.

In fact, my suggestion is to buy the spare wheel in any case, even if you do have run flats.

Only problem with the normal size tyre is the amount of space it occupies in the boot. I currently have my 18" in the boot, until I sort out the "offset" issue on my space saver.

Also, remember that you need a jack and spanner too

jack and spanner I got. figured the 16 wont take much more space then the space saver.

What you think of the toyo?

your standard 16" will most like be 2-3 times bigger than the space saver, based on your wheel/tyre width

cool, can get a space saver + normal decent tires for the same price as runflats :thumbs:
