Evening all, asking the question on behalf of my father who is adamant he needs to get himself a spacesaver headacheAlthough he has owned the car for a couple of years now and never had a need for one and I personally have never felt the need on my Audi yet I do far more long journey's and big trips but anyways he wants one for piece of mind for when he does a 'long' journey that he can just throw in the boot. I understand they did do one from a dealer but its ridiculously expensive rendering it pointless but just thought id ask the question although I suspect the answer is no.

Is there any other space savers from other cars that will fit? Although ive found a few with the correct size and fitment the width seems to be an issue as the clearance from the caliper would be so minimal. Just thought id ask the question incase there was an easy answer before he wastes £££ on one from a dealer...

Will an E46 Spacesaver not fit ? See lots of E46 with E90 wheels on them.

This is the proper kit from a BMW dealer, so assume it's not much cheaper on ebay :
