2003 330i Sport Spare Tire Question

I bought the car with the option 18's as seen in my sig. When purchased the car did not have a spare tire. I have seen these cars come with 17" spares. I am wondering if the car should have come with a 5th 18" rim or a 17" spare.

Anyone who has bought their car with this set up know what I should have in the trunk.

P.S. I do keep an 18' spare in the car

the 17" tires come with a full size spare. Our 18" staggered set-up (i have the exact same wheels) come with a 17" donut.
