I was wondering if there is anybody who can tell me if you order emergency tire in the trunk. Do you get RFT-Tires or not?

If you choose any of the 17" or 18" rims then the tyres are runflats, but they do not supply the space saver spare .... you have to specify it with your options when ordering the car.
So it depends on which rims you choose.
This is true for UK.
