Spare Tire Kits for non space saver X3

Score04 · 05-11-2022, 11:47 AM

Hello, can anyone provide recommendations or links to spare tire kits for your 2021 X3 M40, please? My father bought a used 2021 model that has no optional space saver (like the 90% of the models that are out there without this) and he's looking to buy something for any road trips to throw in the trunk should he actually need to. He understands he's got Road Side Assistance but he would prefer to swap the wheel on his own should he really need to. Any assistance to links or recommendations would be great! Again, appreciate the community support on here.

Thank you. Does this hog up a lot of your trunk space in your opinion?

I have the OEM spare with the raised floor in my X3. So I don't have first hand experience with this kit for the X3.

My X7 did not have the spare and I purchased a similar kit from modernspare to put in it.

Here is what it looks like in the back of an X3. This is the full kit , jack and tools are in the case . Hope this helps.

I know this isn't exactly what you asked, but here's a way to actually use the BMW kit and retain all of your storage:
