2005 BMW 530i Spare Tire

The BMW 530i, a prominent model in BMW's 5 Series sedan lineup, does not typically come equipped with a traditional spare tire due to the manufacturer's preference for run-flat tires, which are designed to allow driving for a limited distance after a puncture. However, for drivers who prefer having a spare tire for added peace of mind, a compatible spare tire option is generally available through aftermarket sources or BMW accessories. The standard size for a BMW 530i spare tire is often a compact, temporary use "donut" tire, designed to save space and weight in the vehicle. This compact spare usually measures significantly smaller than the car's regular tires, with common dimensions being around 18 inches in diameter, narrower than the main tires, and not intended for long-term or high-speed use. Owners looking for a spare tire should thus seek out options that specifically match their vehicle's model year and wheel size to ensure proper fit and compatibility. It's also important to check the vehicle's trunk for necessary mounting hardware, as some models may require an additional purchase to securely store the spare tire within the vehicle.

2005 BMW 530i comes with 2 OEM tire size options. Select the original equipment the tire size installed on your vehicle to see all spare tires that have roughly the same tire diameter and can be used as a temporary replacement in the event of a flat tire. Remember that load carrying capacity of the spare tire must be the same or higher than the load carrying capacity of the original equipment tires in order to safely support the weight of your vehicle. Refer to vehicle owner's manual or contact BMW dealership to confirm the correct 2005 BMW 530i spare tire size.
