There is a lot information about this if you do a quick Search function. You can find my previous post, but I made a compact spare solution by using a BMW compact spare wheel which is used, I think, in the X6. Bought a Bridgestone T compact tire from Tire Rack that was closest to the rear OD. Carry it tied down in the trunk with a compact BMW jack kit. It takes some space, but still plenty left. If I have a flat, I’m on my way in a few minutes. I assume you did not try the BMW fix-a-flat stuff that comes with the car. On a small puncture, it should work, although it may ruin the TPM.

The BMW roadside service is notoriously poor. I used it once, years ago, and never again. IF you need assistance, AAA is much better.
