Spare wheel options

Barry C · 22-10-2012, 12:18 PM

So, I got a puncture the other day and being the stubborn type, i didn't use the repair kit supplied by BMW as i didn't want to wreck a good tyre.

It turned out to be a total pain in the ass because I had no jack or anything so I'm thinking of carrying a spare wheel and jack for long journeys only, in the future.

Have any of you done this? Will a rear wheel fit on the front with out spacers or clearance issues?

what about carrying a regular M3 19' wheel. I don't want to fork out for a genuine CSL wheel that may never see the light of day so a scruffy spare would probably do. I have AP's if that makes a difference.

your thoughts?
