2012 BMW 135i Spare Tire
The BMW 135i, a compact sport coupe known for its impeccable performance and luxury features, does not come equipped with a standard spare tire, reflecting a common trend among performance-oriented and space-optimized vehicles. Instead, the car is typically outfitted with run-flat tires that allow drivers to continue driving for a limited distance at a reduced speed after a puncture. For owners interested in having a spare tire for added peace of mind, the aftermarket offers solutions specifically designed to fit the BMW 135i. A popular choice is a compact, temporary spare tire (often referred to as a "donut") that is smaller than the car's standard tires. This lightweight, space-saving option is designed to fit in the trunk or storage area, offering a temporary solution for getting to a service location or tire shop. The most commonly recommended size for a BMW 135i is a 17-inch spare, which balances the need for compact storage with the capability to handle the car's performance characteristics until a full-size tire can be repaired or replaced. Given the specific dimensions and weight capacity required, it's crucial for 135i owners to consult with a BMW specialist or a reputable automotive parts supplier to ensure compatibility, proper fitting, and safety.
