2016 BMW 535i GT xDrive Spare Tire
The BMW 535i GT xDrive, part of the 5 Series Gran Turismo lineup known for blending luxury sedan comfort with the versatility of a hatchback, includes an important consideration for drivers focused on preparedness: the availability and sizing of spare tires. While the original specifications of many 535i GT xDrive models do not include a standard spare tire - often due in part to the vehicle's use of run-flat technology, which allows for limited mobility even after a tire has been punctured - owners seeking the reassurance of a spare tire have viable options. Specifically designed spare tire kits can be purchased aftermarket. These kits typically include a compact, temporary spare (also known as a "donut") intended for short-term use and to get you safely to a service location. The sizes of these spares can vary but are generally smaller than the car's standard tires to save space, with a common dimension being around 18 inches in diameter, fitting within the constraints of the vehicle's storage areas. This solution not only provides peace of mind to those who travel frequently or through areas where tire service may not be readily available but also ensures that the luxurious driving experience of the 535i GT xDrive remains uninterrupted.
2016 BMW 535i 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 535i GT xDrive spare tire size.
