The Right Spare Tire Kit Engineered Specifically Your 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 or 2022 MINI Countryman. 

We guarantee the Modern Spare Spare Tire kits to be the highest quality and best choice for your MINI Countryman. So much more than a “donut” spare and here’s why:

“Run-Flat” Tires-

Like many cars, the new MINI Countryman is lacking a spare tire. An alternative to a spare tire includes “run-flat” tires which allow up to 50 miles of travel without air pressure. At first glance, run-flats seem like an ideal solution. In fact, many new cars, including models from BMW, Cadillac, and more, come equipped with run-flats from the factory. So, why are run-flat tires not a perfect solution?

Though run-flats are better than no solution, the most common complaint among car owners is that ride and handling quality is inferior while their replacement cost is significantly higher. With millions of dollars going into developing a sophisticated car like the MINI Countryman, run-flat’s substandard performance would seem to hinder the car’s potential. These tires are seldom repairable if driven far without air pressure and often require full replacement. In addition, run-flat tires do not have the same wear resistance under normal driving conditions. The Modern Spare solution allows you the freedom to choose the best tires based on performance, price, and durability without worry of tire failure. All of this while still enjoying peace of mind as you travel.

Our Design-

To make your Modern Spare Kit incredibly simple to use, we designed an aluminum alloy wheel that is significantly lighter and more capable than a conventional steel counterpart.  As a result, our spare wheel/tire combination is easier to handle. The low weight improves your Mini’s performance and fuel economy when compared to a heavier full-sized spare. Also, to maintain excellent standards of quality, our alloy wheel meets or exceeds all the latest DOT highway safety standards. In addition, each spare wheel is equipped with a durable space-saving tire capable of traveling at highway speeds up to 81mph. The improved tire allows you to travel the needed distance to a repair shop you trust with your Countryman.

Better Tools-

To make our Spare Tire Kit better for your MINI, we considered the frustrations that come with typical spare tire tools.  As an example, most scissor jacks are difficult to use and do not provide the needed leverage to easily lift your car. We solved this problem by developing a custom low-profile scissor jack with a unique ratcheting handle mechanism.  This handle provides the required leverage to easily lift your car and lower it safely.  We have carefully designed our jack to lift your car properly at the designated lift points.

If you find a stubborn or overtightened lug nut, our Modern Spare telescoping lug wrench provides nearly two feet of leverage. You’ll be able to easily remove and retighten your lug nuts to quickly get back on the road.

As a forethought, we included a full-size, thick plastic tire bag.  Transporting a full-size flat tire and wheel can be messy. Therefore, placing the large plastic tire bag over the failed tire will help protect your car’s interior.

Our Goal-

Since MINI, like many carmakers, are not providing a spare tire, we are determined to not just provide a spare, rather Modern Spare wants to be the best manufacturer and provider of complete spare tire kits hands-down. We have approached our Modern Spare designs from every angle. This ensures that our customers have the best user experience possible with the best product possible.
