Could you help me? What is the size from the spare tire? Is it in the same location at the trunk?

Thanks in advance.

Dont think theres a spare... there isnt space for a spare with the exhaust... might be wrong cause some people are saying that Australia gets a spare... CidAir did you?

No spare because there is no space ( exhaust ). Instead you have the M Mobility system. You can order a spare if you like - then you get a front wheel ( 255/40-19 ) that takes up almost all trunk space

What M Mobility system means?Are RunFlats available on M5? If yes, what about winter tyres as I think the biggest available winter RFT are 17"s?

No run flats available for M5.

M Mobility system = small air kompressor and sealant to " repair " the tyre, so you can get to the nearest tyre shop and buy a new tyre!

Cidair, I have thinking and have came to the conclusion that I will allow you to change car with me.

And here some word in Swedish: Grattis till din nya M5:a den ser verkligen underbar ut.

8000 km and running like a clock ( a very fast one, that is ).

Made a trip to German tuner Breyton and to car manufaturer Alpina, last week.

Over 3000 km on the German autobahn.

What a high speed monster this car is! Adrenalin was pumping all the week!

The pull from 120 km/h up to the speedlimiter, is just breathtaking

The car hits the limiter in 6th, with more revs to go.

It doesn?t matter if it?s downhill, flat or steep uphill - you are hitting the limiter in notime
