BMW 328i Spare Tire

The BMW 328i, a popular model from the prestigious German automaker, typically comes without a standard spare tire as part of its factory equipment, a decision rooted in the trend towards weight reduction and increased fuel efficiency. Instead, many 328i models are equipped with run-flat tires that allow you to drive for a limited distance at a reduced speed after a puncture. However, for drivers preferring the traditional security of carrying a spare, retrofit options are available. The size of the spare tire you might seek for a BMW 328i should match the car's original tire specifications to ensure proper fit and vehicle handling. This often means looking for a compact or "donut" spare tire that fits in the allocated space within your vehicle, specifically a tire that is around 18 inches in diameter, fitting the standard rim size of a 328i. It's crucial to also have the appropriate tools, such as a jack and lug wrench, tailored for your BMW model. Availability of these spare tires and kits can typically be found at BMW dealerships, specialized auto parts retailers, or through online automotive accessory stores, offering a practical solution for those who prioritize having a spare tire for emergency situations.

BMW 328i models manufactured from 1996 to 2016 have tires with overall diameter ranging from 24.7" to 25.9", 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 328i years and trims.

Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some BMW 328i vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 24" to 26.7". Some 328i 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 328i spare tire size designated by vehicle's manufacturer.
