Has anybody looked into the spare tire that's mentioned in the owner's manual on page 318? Does anybody know the part number? The picture shows the spare tire with a bag. Does this come as a kit? Quite frankly, this looks very similar to the spare tire I bought from BMW for my E90 335. Wonder if it's the same but with a bigger size rim and tire?

yes, it comes as a kit. I don't know the p/n. Didn't take it out.
I wouldn't call this as "spare tire" as it's a tire repair kit.

I suspect it is like that optional kit you can get for other BMWs. I have been thinking about getting one for my M2 Comp as well, since I don't want to count on the pump and slime kit (which will only help for minor punctures). Depending on the car and brakes, you may need a spacer and longer lug bolts for the spare wheel to clear your calipers.

There is no possible way to fit any spare in the Supra. There is nothing under the trunk floor other than the battery which takes up all the space down there.

You'd have to carry it in the hatch out in the open. Get a tire tote bag and strap it down. Probably not an issue for most folks since we don't often use these cars for cargo.
