Left a wedding reception. Drove over some rocks washed onto road. Got a flat immediately. I am in the middle of no where. Question. Is any lug nut removal tool or lock included in my 240i? I don’t have run flats. That’s what the dealership stated 4 weeks ago. I’ve had my vehicle 6 weeks. I’m going back in the morning. Otherwise they have to tow my vehicle 100 miles to nearest dealership. My city is 154 opposite way. Any help is appreciated. I’m thinking of removing tire, taking to repair shop locally here where I’m visiting. Just to get home and then have dealership check it out. Thoughts? Thanks.

No jack and pretty sure no lug nut removal tool.

Did u try the tire inflator emergency kit ? Do u see a big gash on the tire ?

Too dark and muddy
Going back now
Just wondering if I can remove tire without calling roadside assistance?

You’ll need to bring a jack to lift car and not sure if 17 or 19 mm long socket to remove lugs, on slightly older car wheels can stick to hub u need to give a good wack to break them lose.

If on mud any lifting u do is dangerous so calling roadside may be best.

There is a tire inflator and (tire foam) provided in trunk and if you fill the tire that could give you some inflation to move the car a distance w/o damaging wheel

Thanks. Future note. There was emergency flat kit. But tire had gash after clearing mud. Lug nuts couldn’t be removed. Special size. BMW roadside assistance worked out. On flatbed to dealer. Thanks for the help.

what you mean with special size...? the nuts are 17mm but you might have a wheel lock on each wheel.... the adapter should be on the little leather bag that's usually in the trunk next to the battery below the trunk board cover...

It looked like some plastic cover on each lug nut.
The tool in the black plastic bag was a screwdriver and a big metal bar with a round circle on one side and a threaded side. That’s it. Otherwise it was all empty.

that's weird.... the bar is to tow screw that goes into the front bumper..

usually you will get one like this that they put on the same bag

Thanks for the pic.
Yeah they must have forgotten that piece. Didn’t have it.
