Guess What I Found...
Found it on Craigslist from a former e90'er. Apparently it was never used and sitting in his garage. Purchased it for $75. I didn't event bother haggling
Purchased the Spare tire tote for $15.95 from Bimmerzone.com

There are cargo hooks in the trunk near the back seat which I fasten with a bungee cord. Doesn't move at all.

So, what exactly are you posting about? Just that you got it at a very good price? Or is there something unusual about the kit? To me it looks like the ordinary 5-series kit sold on the Net, which we know fits 3-series almost exactly.

I'm asking an absolutely neutral question, because I'm also looking for a donut spare. I'm ready to by one from Bimmerzone for their price. But seeing this post I just wanna know if this specific spare is something different, better suited for a E90 car. Or if it's just the same thing for a better price.

Silver, I don't understand what you mean, are you asking if it has any rust settling in? The phone pictures are not as clear as viewed in person, but the tire, jack and wrench look practically new.

he's referring to the production year of the tire. should be on the tire somewhere.. a tire thats been sitting unused for too long can become brittle and prone to cracking/failure.. i've heard too long is 7 years? correct me if i'm wrong.

Dude, where do I find this information? I looked all over both sidewalls and inside the rim. Whle there were multiple locations that listed different numbers, none resembled a date or year.
