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.

BMW 135i models manufactured from 2008 to 2013 have tires with overall diameter ranging from 24.8" to 25.1", allowing the use of a temporary spare tire with a near same diameter as the OEM tire. Tire diameter and wheel diameter clearance have been taken into account for the specific BMW 135i years and trims.

Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some BMW 135i vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 24.1" to 25.9". Some 135i models may require the use of a traditional full-size tire as a spare. To ensure safe temporary mobility in case of a road emergency, always refer to the vehicle owner's manual for the correct BMW 135i spare tire size designated by vehicle's manufacturer.
