The 4.8's have a little 18" donutty thing. I had a full size in my 3.0 so before I sold it, I swapped the two, spare tire lift straps and all.  But this December, I finally changed over to a 19" from an E70 so it would clear the big brakes.

I am not opposed to the donutty thing if that is the right way to do it (it is for emergency only) but maybe a spare front 9,5x20 style 87 with a 275x40x20 would be the way to go? Do you know if anyone has ever tried to fit one in the tub?
Is the 19" emergency using a run flat the largest and the proper wheel for the X5 with 20" OEM spec wheels? I can't find any info on a 20" emergency wheel.
Doesn't the E70 have a larger wheel hub size needing a hub centric ring?
