You’ll need the 19” diameter.

Any BMW salespersons our there who want to order a bunch of stock vehicles with the spare wheel option and then sell them at a dealership profit?
I think I'm going to pass and just take my chances. It's just getting ridiculously expensive. The kit I ordered that I cancelled was almost $1,000 with shipping. This would now be a couple hundred more than that. Ugh....what a mistake.

I hear you. They don’t even have the option to order it in Canada. How does that make sense?!

Looks like forum sponsor vendors may have our backs. This is reasonable: https://www.bmwpartspros.com/p-bmw-o...-xseriesmspare

They won't ship to Canada.

Of course they won’t. . I guess I wait until the border is open again. Which will be... someday.

If you have M Sport brakes make sure it is a wheel that will fit over them. There are some spare tire kits that people have posted for the G05 that will not work with the M Sport brakes.

I just received my Modern Spare kit yesterday. I ordered it mid-December so they are very back ordered. Supply issues from China.

It is heavier than I expected. The entire kit fits in the factory location. I have M-sport brakes so I had to also get the spacer. The spacer doesn't fit in their bag but there is room in the spare location to keep it stored next to the tire.

The extra 50 or 60 pounds of weight in the rear unexpectedly improved the ride rather noticeably. I have the air suspension.

Purchased the following items for the kit:

36-11-6-880-744 : Spare Wheel
71-10-6-889-264 : Lifting Jack
71-10-6-877-210 : Shelf
71-12-6-788-617 : Lug Wrench Crank
71-12-1-507-292 : Chock
71-12-6-886-420 : Crank Handle
71-15-6-756-073 : Rod
71-15-1-180-625 : Spare Retainer
71-10-9-909-543 : Top Nut
71-15-6-756-072 : Cover
71-15-6-754-340 : Ring

I don't think the last 5 parts can be used with this configuration. There is mechanical interference with the Lifting Jack. Also, I think the part number for the Top Nut may be wrong - it won't screw on to the Rod.

Rest of the parts seem to be the correct items.

I have the RFTs , But does anybody know what kind of support one could expect from BMW roadside assistance if I were to go with non-RFT and no spare? 1000 bucks would go along way in solving my issues on the road as well.

Where did you order from? You run M Sport brakes with 22” normally?

In retrospect, I would not get the modern spare and instead just get the BMW spare because it does not require a huge spacer. I think the BMW spare weighs less too.

See my post here. https://g05.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1833642

n.b. I have 401, not 50i. Their website will tell you if it will fit. Will probably need spacers.

Did it come with the foamy plastic in the middle to hold all tools? Have any pics of it in it's space?

The BMW one is good yes - but i think it's a nightmare to get hold of & also costs about 3/4x more than it would when spec'ing the car from new.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas! The foam insert is not included. I think that is a BMW part that can be ordered, but I am not sure if it will fit in the modern spare. I opted to pay for their nylon storage bag. Everything fits in the bag except the spacer, which is enormous. The spacer will fit in the spare compartment, but it is wedged next to the outside of the tire.

I think after all was said and done the modern spare was $300 cheaper than the BMW spare, but I was disappointed in how heavy it was and the huge spacer and their shipping estimates were never accurate so it arrived months after it was originally promised.

I came across this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/273784629...kAAOSwW-9f9Lx1

Although alloy looks really different! But cheap for the price.
