Spare tire wanted
2019 MB GLC 300 4 matic SUV
For the summer, I have run flats, but during the winter months, the winter tires are not run flats, and a tire pressure kit may not always work well, especially in cold weather.
I'm looking for a spare tire that could be compatible with this car, to be used just for an emergency runs. In order for it to fit in the lower compartment, I would prefer a "donut" tire if possible. Any recommendations?

here's a link to a long thread on the topic.

See entry #183 for what I have AND how the never before known "brake silencers" protruding from the front calipers cause the donut wheel to slightly rub against these flag looking parts.

Mercedes in some overseas markets sell a donut tyre , bag and jack kit. Nit sure if sold in USA, Canada maybe. Sold in Australia, suits series with AMG set up with different brake set up as well.
Good luck, lots of threads here with numerous work around for owners. Some use older model ML series spares as well.
