BMW 535i xDrive Spare Tire

The BMW 535i xDrive, a popular model for its blend of performance and luxury, typically does not come with a standard spare tire due to its design focus on maximizing efficiency and space utilization. Instead, BMW equips these models with run-flat tires that can continue to perform for a limited distance after a puncture. However, for drivers who prioritize having a spare tire, aftermarket solutions are available. The most suitable spare tire size for a BMW 535i xDrive would generally be a compact, temporary spare, often referred to as a "donut," designed specifically to not interfere with the vehicle's advanced all-wheel-drive system. This compact spare is smaller than the car's standard tires, typically around the size of T135/80R17, but exact dimensions can vary based on the year of the vehicle and the wheel configuration. It's important for owners to consult their vehicle's manual or a professional tire provider to ensure compatibility. This compact spare provides a short-term solution to get the vehicle to a service location for tire repair or replacement, rather than for extended usage.

BMW 535i xDrive models manufactured from 2009 to 2016 have tires with overall diameter ranging from 25.7" to 26.7", 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 535i xDrive years and trims.

Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some BMW 535i xDrive vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 24.9" to 27.5". Some 535i 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 535i xDrive spare tire size designated by vehicle's manufacturer.
