Does a BMW X3 have a spare tire?
Help!! I’ve got a flat on the side of the road and I need to change my tire. Does my BMW X3 have a spare tire?

Oh no! Sorry to hear you’re stuck with a flat tire—that’s never any fun! Knowing how to change a tire is a useful skill, but first you’ll need to access the spare tire. But wait! Does a BMW X3 have a spare tire?
No, a BMW X3 doesn’t have a spare tire. But don’t worry! You probably don’t need it. Every BMW comes standard with run-flat tires, which allow you to drive safely on a flat tire for 50ish miles (for exact mileage, check your owner’s manual). While you can’t drive on these tires indefinitely once they go flat, you should have enough time to get to a tire shop where you can get a new tire or repair your flat tire.
The pros of run-flat tires are:
- You can drive on a flat tire
- There is better stability after a blowout
- The vehicle weighs less since there is no spare tire or repair kit
- More trunk space for you
Of course, if driving on a flat makes you nervous—even on a run-flat tire—you can always call roadside assistance for help. If you don’t have
