Best size for spare?

JacobT · 01-09-2008, 08:11 PM

I was thinking about buying 1 wheel/tire and leave it in the trunk as spare since I'm running 19s regular now. What's the best rim size for 335i? Probably 18" at least because of the 14" rotor. I want it to be very light and narrow since it's a spare that I carry all the time.

I'm thinking about 18x7.5 with 205/45/18. What do you think? Does TireRack sell just one wheel?
