Spare tire for XI running a staggered setup

So I'm running a staggered setup on my XI , I believe et 40 up front with 235/35/19 and et 25 in the rear running 265/30/19. What spare can I run without being too far off from the rolling diameter. I don't want to get a blown transfer case because of running a spare. Nor do I want to run the risk of driving with no spare at all.
thanks in advance.

take a look at the E90 forum on bimmerfest. i have a thread stickied at the top. http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=297373

the E60 compact spare is very close in diameter to 235/35/19 and 265/35/19.

the spare is about 25.4-25.5" in diameter.

235/35/19 is 25.48" in diameter
265/35/19 is 25.26" in diameter

135/80/17 is 25.5" in diameter

i run the same sized summer tires.
