Hello,

Think I'm going to get shot of the run flats. What have people done regarding a spare? I have Tyreweld handy but nothing more trusty than a wheel and a tyre?

Buy a cheap BMW centre bored wheel and a scissor jack?

Cheers.

Tyre weld, pump and breakdown cover.

Tyreweld reliable WM?

I've been fortunate enough to never have to use it...
Put my summers back on on Thurs and got the flat warning tonight.... luckily it was just a slow puncture.

Nothing can replace a proper spare. But in 18 years of driving, I have yet to need one. Proper, regular inspection and care of tyres goes a long way.

I have some tyre weld and a pump in the boot for emergencies. Would be nice to have a spare but would fill the boot. Hopefully never be in the situation fingers crossed.

I have one of these .... http://slime.com/219/products/smart-spair-40013/

Not had to use it yet though thankfully !

I got BMW to include a tyre mobility kit as it wasn't on runflats when I got it, it's a electric tyre inflator with the option of also using tyre weld.

Agreed

I bought the OEM space saver wheel/tyre and jack kit. On the basis that I could recoup some of the cost when I sell it on via ebay etc,
Ive used it twice.

I want to drop the runflats but with an E93 there is no room for a spare! The wind deflector sitting in the boot irritates me!
