“Run-Flat” Tires- BMW Finally Made The Change

BMW, for over a decade, has relied on run-flat tires as an alternative to having a genuine spare tire. BMW is moving away from the use of run-flat tires in their model lineup, including the newest generation 5-series.

Many BMW owners were not thrilled with their poor ride performance and barely adequate tread ware. More importantly, they are very expensive to replace. Though run-flats perform their intended function in getting you to a repair shop without air pressure, these tires are seldom repairable and require replacement if then driven on for any significant distance.

While run flats are no longer the preferred factory option, tire sealer kits or reliance on roadside assistance are not real solutions to failed tires. The Modern Spare solution allows you to replace your run-flat tires with more affordable and better-performing conventional tires 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 BMW 5 series 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 with a DOT “M” speed rating indicating the tire is tested for a constant speed of 81mph. While it is wise to limit your speed to 50mph as some tire manufacturers state, we have chosen these “M” speed-rated tires knowing the tire’s strength and capability exceed that of normal use. This ensures that the tire is durable and well-built.

This, along with having the proper overall rolling diameter for your vehicle, will allow you to travel the needed distance to a repair shop you trust with your vehicle.

Better Tools-

To make our Spare Tire Kit better for your BMW, 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 vehicle properly. Our jack head is specifically made for your BMW’s unique lift points.

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

And something worth noting, modern vehicles have very specific lift points for proper jack placement. More importantly, your vehicle requires a specific jack type to properly lift the car. In other words, the type of head on the jack is critically important for proper use, whereas a typical generic or universal jack will simply not do. We design our scissor jacks in-house and are specific to each make and model we support.

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-

By now, you’re aware that your 5 Series is missing a spare tire. BMW, like many carmakers, is not providing this important lifesaver.
