Looking RealOEM.com I see there IS an alloy wheel spare tire: 36110445045 It is the same one I bought for my car last year! The main reason why I went with the alloy wheel was bc you don't need any adptor rings or different wheel bolts. BMW will not sell you the tire for this wheel... but they will sell you the alloy wheel.

I like the spare rims!!!

But for most of us, why not a set of ContiComfortKit? Anything more then this, it is emergency road assistance.
