Great dialogue Mac and Spaulding. I just want to add that in the case of the story that inspired this, an X3 with a flat, a compact spare, or even full size spare would have been most welcome as an option. What I like is that this discussion opened up the possibility of both run flats (which we can all agree do have some benefits) and a spare option for the customer that chooses to purchase it as an option. Every crossover I have tested this past year (about 15 by my estimation) had a compact or full size spare in the trunk under the cargo area, or mounted up under the rear of the vehicle. BMW could make that work. Last, repair kits don't work in New England where it is well below zero and often snowing for 4 months of the year.
