spare tire

[kcoan]

Am I crazy or is there no spare in the '99 M Roadster?

God knows where they put it maybe its under the seat LOL its such a small car

TO THE 7

My Z3 doesn't have one. I don't think any roadsters do. You could probably get one....but good luck fitting anything else in your trunk.

Hmmm, that seems odd. My 1996 Z3 has one, and I'm pretty sure all Z3's have one. My spare is located on the underside of the car, near the rear bumper. Instructions for releasing the spare are located with the jack, in the trunk.

Uh-oh! I'd better check under my car.

LOL

OK, So now you're just making fun of me. You and that damn roadrunner...

I do not know about all Z3 Roadsters but the M Z3 roadster comes with run flat tires and a hydrolic pump in the trunk. No spare!!!

I saw the jack and some stuff in the back, but no spare.

Now that seems really odd... Why would BMW supply a jack, but no spare? I've heard the Z4 comes with run flats and a can of sealant. I think the M3 does also, so maybe M roadster does also.

I least I have a jack and wrench for when I need to change my brakes and tires....and paint my brake calipers!

 

[Bear6360]

I painted my calipers finally. I found my spare. It was tucked away under there pretty good. I also hacked off my brake sensor while wire brushing my caliper. Not bad in a day's work.

Now things are starting to make sense. I think it's safe to say if you find a jack, it probably has a spare.

Where did you get the caliper paint? I'd like to do mine also.

I bought it online....G2auto, I think. Just put in caliper paint in yahoo. You should be able to find it pretty easy. It comes with a lifetime guarantee.

My 97 2.8 had a spare, but the 98 M I have now does not. Bonzo is mostly correct all non M roadsters have spares. The 98 M did not come with run flats or a pump, but I have them now! I even bought a jack from e-Bay and put it the M's trunk!
