In an accident, I spare tire held in with a "bungee" can become a deadly projectile. Secure it properly with at least a heavy duty ratchet strap Then there's the jack and lug wrench that need to be properly secured.

Spare tire stowage
Modern Tire could never confirm delivery on my spare tire assy,so when I received a follow up email from bimmerzone offering free shipping for the same product, I received it 3 days later. Decided to lay spare on floor and secure it to the floor in the track with the slotted hooks that are there,Added a shelf over spare to still utilize the rear space.Yes ,can’t beat piece of mind
