Spare Tire Help

Since BMW has switched to a 5x112 bolt pattern. Are i correct to assume it would be alot cheaper to purchase a spare donut intended for Audi VW? Anyone?

Knowing that the total diameter on the BMW G2x is larger than Audi B8, I remember that the emergency wheel for my slightly lowered Camaro was smaller than the normal tires, so I got problem to pass speed bumps when I needed to use it. Also the standard ET is higher for the Audi so also check that it clears the front brakes. Not saying it will cause problems. Just two points that I would check.
