X1 M35i Spare Tire?
Hi guys, for M35i owners - can someone confirm if the regular X1 spare tire would fit on the M35i? I thought I saw somewhere that it won't due to our larger brake system. If so, does anyone know if there's an aftermarket spare for us? I occasionally do long drives and I"m not comfortable driving with just a flat kit they gave us. It sucks we don't get one for this car!

what some folks did on the previous model without spare tire is found one to fit the rear. If a front goes, swap a rear for front and put the spare on the back. with the M brakes it is difficult to find a spare that will fit in storage and fit over them
Good luck |

If you’re physically able, a patch kit and a battery powered compressor is usually faster for me rather than changing a spare.

I had the same issue regarding a spare tire for the X1 M35 and was told to check the Modern Spare web site. I called them and was told that their spare would fit over the larger calipers and the 19 inch size of the M35i tires.
