got couple of questions regarding f15 2016 model

denniss · 11-13-2015, 02:45 PM

1. I've made a mistake and ordered my car without a spare tire - is it possible to retrofit it at the dealer and does anyone know how much something like this would run me ?
2. what is the tint % from the manufacturer on the rear windows ?

Thank you.

1. yes, but it will cost more than had you ordered it originally.
2. usually most factory tints are around 20%

Around 20 sounds about right. They're pretty dark. I thought about matching with front windows but California is not the place to get front windows tinted too dark.. :/

Yes that is the idea. Want to match it.

My front tints are 20% and according my tint guy that is BMW's standard tint %.

I haven't looked at the parts myself, but on my F10, I purchased a X6 spare for $120 or so and a tire for $120?. Mounted and balanced for $10. Might be worth looking up individual part numbers. Might be a good savings if you're willing to do the work
