BMW 528i xDrive Spare Tire

The BMW 528i xDrive, particularly respected for its blend of luxury and performance, typically comes without a standard spare tire due to BMW's preference for run-flat tires that can function even after a puncture for a limited distance. However, for drivers looking for peace of mind with a traditional spare tire, options are available. A common choice for a spare tire that fits the BMW 528i xDrive is a compact or "donut" spare, designed for temporary use and limited speed. This compact spare is generally sized to be compatible with the vehicle's brake and wheel assembly, ensuring it doesn't interfere with the all-wheel-drive system's operation. Specifically, a typical size for these compact spares can be around 18 inches, designed to occupy minimal trunk space while providing a reliable short-term solution for flat tires. It's imperative for owners to check their vehicle's specific requirements, as variations in year and model might necessitate different spare tire specifications. Drivers looking to equip their vehicle with one should consider OEM options or aftermarket solutions designed to meet BMW's specifications, ensuring both fitment and the continuation of BMW's high-performance standards.

BMW 528i xDrive models manufactured from 2009 to 2016 have tires with overall diameter ranging from 25.7" to 26.8", 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 528i xDrive years and trims.

Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some BMW 528i xDrive vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 24.9" to 27.6". Some 528i xDrive 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 528i xDrive spare tire size designated by vehicle's manufacturer.
