I bought a donut spare (space saver) because my winters are nonrf and there is not enough space for a full-size one. What a rip-off!!! The donut+jack cost me over 310 Euros! BMW get real. If you are not giving us a full-size tyre at least put a donut for free.

Sorry about your problems. Although, I think a donut spare is adequate especially when they equip the car with runflats.

I had a flat this weekend and the only thing in the trunk was a flimsy air compressor and some sealant. The tire could probably have been easily patched, but it was in the middle of the night, so I decided to use the sealant which pretty much makes the tire useless. A donut spare would have really come in handy in this case, so I'll probably purchase one and throw it in the back.
