Given that the R56 does, I'd say it's a very safe bet.

Since the R55 was designed to have more room than the R56, I'm wondering if it might have a spare tire and non-run-flats.

It seems like BMW is trying to move all of their car lines to run-flats so I would assume that the R55 will have them. I know the new 3-series area all run-flats too.

Run flats will be there I'm sure, it may be bigger but spare tyres still take up space that runflats do not.
