Take a tin of tyre weld, be fine. Unless you have a blow out then it's no use to you

Sorry to hijack the thread but it's on the same subject, spare wheels that is!! My 320i doesn't have a spare, what size should I get for it? It's on 15" rims at the moment so will a 15" spare fit in the well or do I have to get a 14" with a higher profile tyre?

Cheers

A 15" wheel fits in the well just fine bud, as does a 16" wheel.

Seriously does no one on the forum near me own a 4x100 wheel they can sell me or even a set of bbs standards, as the potholes round here have destroyed one of my wheels and I'm fuming, going to complain to the council and write a article in the paper, why do we pay 200 a year for road tax and then get a offroad track as a road!!!
