2013 BMW 135is Spare Tire
BMW 135is models, which are part of the compact executive 1 Series produced by BMW, typically do not come equipped with a traditional spare tire as part of their standard equipment. This is a common trend among modern vehicles, particularly sports cars and luxury vehicles, where manufacturers opt for weight reduction and additional space savings for enhanced performance and fuel efficiency. Instead of a conventional spare tire, BMW has favored run-flat tires for several of its models, including the 135is, or provided a tire repair kit that can temporarily fix minor punctures. For those BMW 135is owners seeking the reassurance of a spare tire, the aftermarket does offer solutions. A compact, temporary spare tire, often referred to as a "donut", can typically be sourced. These temporary spares are smaller than regular tires - a common size for compact and midsize vehicles is around T125/80R17, but the size should be specifically verified to match the vehicle's requirements, considering wheel well dimensions and compatibility. It's imperative for owners to consult with a reliable automotive parts provider or BMW dealership to ensure the correct fitment for their vehicle, keeping in mind that the use of a temporary spare tire is generally limited by speed and distance, intended purely to get the vehicle to a repair shop for a permanent fix.
2013 BMW 135is comes with 1 OEM tire size option. 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 2013 BMW 135is spare tire size.
