Sorry, I thought you were asking me, but in any case, someone may find the following useful: Wheel: www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-bmw-parts/black-steel-emergency-wheel/36116758778 Tire: Continental sContact T115/95R17 My hub centric rings should arrive late today, so a test drive is planned...

If you do, be sure to have the wheel mounted with the hub centric ring before you start tightening. Personally, I'd like to preserve as much of the lug nut seat material as possible, but your "shortcut" might be OK.

As delivered, the holes in the wheel are just barely big enough to allow 14mm studs to fit through. Any distortion risks locking the wheel on the studs - a big problem. Opening up the holes is easy with a step drill.

Yes, legitimate concerns. Hopefully my post above addressed them to some extent. Re: #1 Be sure to use a hub centric ring to center the wheel properly, so you are not counting on the wheel studs to do that. IMO (as a degreed mechanical engineer) any nut that provides adequate clamping force...

Yes, this is absolutely correct. Sorry to stir up so much worry on this subject - It's not as bad as I may have made it sound. The #1 takeaway is DON'T JUST PUT THIS WHEEL ON WITH YOUR OEM LUG NUTS AND TORQUE THEM TO 80+ FT-LBS - THE WHEEL MAY GET STUCK ON THE STUDS. So here's the problem...

WHAT LUG NUTS TO USE WITH THIS WHEEL (sorry this got so long) If you tried using standard 60 degree conical lug nuts like these on the wheel recommended in Post #1 you may have found they don't seat very well. That's because the lug nut seats on the wheel are quite small in diameter because (I...

I'm glad this worked out for you, and clever use of the jack. Looks like you bought the jack I recommended, which has a special feature. The jack's screw has a double thread so as the jack raises, the end that you rotate stays in the same place, rather than moving towards the center of the...

The diameters are correct, but they don't give the thickness (but it's probably adequate). If you just want two, here's an option: www.amazon.com/dp/B0CCY8CQZ1. Only rated 3.9 though.

Look for Hub Centric Rings 72.6 to 64.1 (or 64.1 to 72.6) on Amazon or eBay. Aluminum ones are readily available for about $12 for a set of 4 (I wouldn't use plastic).

Although I have a spare tire in my trunk, I thought it would be useful to also have the Air Compressor in there as well. I carved out a space in my trunk for the Compressor, but first I removed the bottle of Sealant (I'll use that space for something useful, like a tire plug kit). The...

Some may not agree, but I don't think it's a good idea to drive with a different diameter tire (Modern Spare is 24.9" diameter) in the front. It would be like constantly driving in a 338 foot radius circle, so it wears on the LSD.

I asked the folks at Modern Spare what the overall width of their tire & wheel package is and they told me "roughly 6 inches". I don't know the precision or accuracy of that measurement, but assuming it's exactly 6 inches, that's one inch thicker than the wheel and tire package that I have...

You beat me to the punch. I received this scissor jack today from www.amazon.com/dp/B0CDVY62DQ. It seems to work well and fits under the wheel & tire in the orientation shown. The telescoping lug wrench from www.amazon.com/dp/B00RF95TDC works well and fits as shown because of the wooden...

I added a spare tire that fits flat under the load floor - Does not raise the load floor at all. FOR USE ON THE FRONT ONLY! See https://www.integraforums.com/forum/threads/a-spare-tire-that-fits-under-the-load-floor.51812/

Side-to-side and front-to-back I think it would be fine without a mount, however in the event of a rollover I'd prefer to have it secured.

I have a spare tire solution that fits flat under the load floor - Does not raise the load floor at all. See https://www.integraforums.com/forum/threads/a-spare-tire-that-fits-under-the-load-floor.51812/
