I am going to find a mini spare and a small jack (there is a thread on this that I have read before), although I have two sets of wheels and could use a snow in summer and vice versa. The mini takes up less space. I won't bother around town, but if I take a trip, it is definitely going in the trunk. The OP's experience highlights the issue. You may have BMW Roadside Assistance or AAA (I have Platinum), but you may be far from home, taking expensive cab rides, staying in a hotel, buying a tire at full retail price, or buying a wheel at full retail price, in addition to the major inconvenience.
