About The BMW F22/F23 Spare Tire:

The BMW  2 Series F22/F23 Spare Tire includes a Genuine BMW wheel and a Maxxis T155/60-18 tire. This BMW spare is suitable for use on both the front and rear of your BMW.

Why Get a spare tire from Bimmerzone?

At Bimmerzone, we exclusively utilize Genuine BMW wheels for our spare tire, setting us apart from many competitors in the market. One might question the necessity of acquiring a BMW spare tire. The 2 Series F22/F23 is a prime example of a BMW model that does not include a spare tire from the factory, relying solely on run-flat tires. Regardless of whether you choose to retain or switch from run-flats, it remains crucial to have a spare tire on hand. Run-flats may not provide adequate support in the event of more severe punctures, potentially leaving you stranded.

What is included?

The BMW 2 Series F22/F23 Spare Tire comes complete with the tire pre-mounted on a Genuine BMW wheel, making it convenient and ready for immediate use. If you require the optional jack kit or tire tote, please refer to the information provided below.

What is optional?

When purchasing the spare tire, you can choose to include an aftermarket BMW jack kit. This kit contains a jack, jack handle, and lug wrench, all neatly packaged in a storage bag. Additionally, you have the option to add a tire tote, which enhances the appearance of your spare tire and can also be used to store your damaged tire after a change.

FAQ

How fast can I drive?
The tire manufacturer recommends that you do not exceed 50 Mph at any time.

How far can I drive?
While the tire manufacturer does not specify a precise distance, it is advised to use the spare tire only to reach your home or a nearby tire shop. This spare tire is not intended for extended driving.

The wheels on my car are 17" (19" or 20"), yours spare tire is 18"?
This is a frequently asked question, and it’s understandable to be confused about rim size versus outer diameter. The spare tires we offer closely match the outer diameter of the tires on your vehicle, ensuring a non-lob-sided ride. We’ve also established a minimum wheel size necessary to clear your brakes through rigorous testing.

Where do I store the Spare Tire in my BMW?
Since BMW did not design a storage space for a spare tire under the trunk floor, many of our customers secure it using a ratchet strap attached to the D-rings in the trunk. This method takes up minimal space.

Disclaimer:
The sole purpose of this spare tire kit is to help you get out of a difficult situation (such as traffic or security) and is not intended for extended driving. We strongly recommend securing it in your trunk. By purchasing this kit, you acknowledge this guideline. While we have test-fitted it on a stock BMW model for your application, we encourage you to test it on your vehicle, as modifications may have been made. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to us.
