Help with Spare Tire!

Hi, I have a 2008 X5 4.8i w/3rd row seats and 20" wheels. My RF tires were dead and I opted to replace them with all season tires. I got Toyo Proxes ST II and they're great. Unfortunately, this means that I do not have run flats or a spare tire anymore.

My question is: Is there space for a spare tire in the car w/ the 3rd row? I've heard there isn't one.

If not, I can always put the spare in a wheel bag and leave it in the trunk. But what size spare will fit? Will a 17" wheel fit it?

Is this a size that'd fit?

Thanks!
