2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 5 Spare Tire

The BMW ActiveHybrid 5, like many other BMW models, does not come standard with a spare tire. This is due to BMW's use of run-flat technology on its tires, which are designed to support the weight of the vehicle for a short time even after losing all air pressure, eliminating the need for a spare tire. BMW asserts that these tires can support a safe and controlled drive for up to 100 miles at a maximum speed of 50mph after a puncture has occurred. However, should BMW owners desire a spare tire, typically the size needs to align with the vehicle's other tires. For the BMW ActiveHybrid 5, tire measurements commonly used are 225/55R17 for the 17-inch wheel sizes and 245/40R19 for 19-inch wheel sizes. Therefore, any spare tire should match these measurements.

2015 BMW ActiveHybrid 5 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.
