Pretty sure MS could sell a fit for the G30 as well. I'm happy $450 later.
On the spec setup on bmw website if you add the the 20" 668 double spoke rims with non-run-flats it says "Delete hands-free tailgate operation" as it adds the spare automatically. Is this true that you lose this funtion? Anyone know if you lose hands free tailgate with the 19" or other 20" wheels as well when you add the spare option? Configurator seems to suggest as much.
