Well, I went ahead and bought the alloy spare wheel for about $200. Tire rack spare tire continental (at least German vs the Taiwan brand spare tire factory option comes with) for $110 shipped. I then Canibalized my e90 spare tire kit for the foam, jack, wheel chuck, and spare tire wrench. Wrapped it up in the tote that used to hold my e90 spare tire. Tied it down with a spare tie down from my truck. Not nice looking but for $310 I think I did pretty well. Of course ordering it from factory is the best choice if you have a place to spare it when you need the space.
