2016 BMW 328i GT xDrive Spare Tire
The BMW 328i GT xDrive, a dynamic blend of luxury and performance, unfortunately, does not come standard with a spare tire due to design choices aimed at optimizing cargo space and fuel efficiency. Instead, BMW equipped these models with run-flat tires (RFTs) that allow drivers to continue for a limited distance at reduced speeds after a puncture. However, for drivers who prefer the assurance of carrying a spare, aftermarket solutions are available. The appropriate spare tire size typically mirrors that of the car's standard tires to ensure compatibility and safety, but due to the vehicle's specific design, space constraints must be considered. Thus, a compact or "donut" spare tire, along with a compatible jack and tire iron, is often the go-to solution. These compact spares are designed to be lightweight and take up minimal space, providing a short-term fix that allows the driver to safely reach a service location. It's crucial to check the vehicle's manual and with BMW or qualified aftermarket vendors to ensure the chosen spare tire and kit are appropriate for the 328i GT xDrive, both in fit and in meeting the vehicle's performance standards.
2016 BMW 328i GT xDrive comes with 3 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 2016 BMW 328i GT xDrive spare tire size.
