BMW 318ti Spare Tire

The BMW 318ti, a compact hatchback version within the 3 Series range produced during the 1990s, specifically between 1994 and 1999, follows BMW's tradition of precise engineering and attention to detail, even down to its spare tire configurations. For owners or enthusiasts looking to ensure they have the correct spare tire, the typical size to seek is a compact spare, often referred to as a "space-saver," designed to be lightweight and save space compared to a full-size spare, yet robust enough to get you to a service location safely. The standard size for a 318ti space-saver spare tire is commonly found to be in the realm of T125/90R15, though variations could exist based on the trim level and options originally purchased with the vehicle. It's essential for owners to verify compatibility with their specific model year and variant to ensure the spare tire not only fits in the designated compartment but also matches the car's bolt pattern and clearance requirements. Availability of these spare tires is relatively good, with options to purchase them through BMW dealerships, aftermarket automotive part retailers, and online marketplaces, offering both new and used conditions to meet a range of budget and preference needs.

BMW 318ti models manufactured from 1995 to 1999 have tires with overall diameter ranging from 24.4" to 24.9", 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 318ti years and trims.

Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some BMW 318ti vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 23.7" to 25.6". Some 318ti 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 318ti spare tire size designated by vehicle's manufacturer.
