BMW X5 Spare Tire Fitment Guide
The BMW X5 used 5x112 mm and 5x120 mm bolt pattern variations from 2000 to 2026 along with tire diameters ranging from 28.7" to 29.7" tall. Using a temporary compact spare tire with a diameter close to the standard tire has many benefits, especially for modern vehicles with larger brake calipers and anti-lock brakes or traction control systems.
The tire diameter and the wheel diameter clearance have been taken into account for the specific BMW X5 years and options. In this case, a 175/70R20 temporary spare tire is the recommendation for all applications. We've provided a breakdown by vehicle generation and model specifics to help you find the correct BMW X5 spare tire.
2019-2026 BMW X5 Spare Tires
This generation of the BMW X5 began in 2019 and is still the current model being produced. All the models for these years use the same spare tire and wheel solution. The Standard models include M Sport versions, and the M models include Competition versions. The M50i and M60i models are listed individually. The xDrive option does not change the recommended spare tire.
