Full size spare - pic

how does a spare work when you have a staggered setup? will it work for both front and rear wheels? what's the correct spare tire size to accommodate the different tire sizes?

I guess repair facilities are a lot closer together in Bavaria.

Is this space saver cover available from BMW or has it been discontinued?

from what my dealer told me (at least in EU) it has been removed from the kit.
