BMW Z8 Spare Tires

The BMW Z8 used a 5x120 mm bolt pattern for all models from 1999 to 2006 along with tire diameters ranging from 26.7" to 27.0" 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 Z8 years and options. In this case, a 145/60R20 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 Z8 spare tire.
