Tire trailer hitch
 
I know Curt makes one for the 350, any word on the 370? I cant carry 4 race rubber inside the car, need to figure out what tires I can buy

yes and no. My friend Al bought a 350 one and had it adapted to fit the 370. there was cutting and welding involved, but he said the shop could make another. The hitch comes out where the jdm foglight cover is.

A trailer hitch belongs on a truck not a Sports Car!!!

I went with a texas rollback trailer myself, but not everyone can tow their cars to the racetrack, where they really use them. trailer hitches do belong on track cars, when you can't fit 4 extra wheels inside the car (can't even fit one in the hatch, actually).

Yes, I did, and I had a truck to carry tires, air, food, water. I used a two axle flat bed trailer to haul my 240.

Back on topic:
I had no Idea there was such a thing even for a 350z.
This is just to lug your wheels and tires around right?

I have quite a few friends with Audi TT's and hitches. A little 4x6 Harbor freight trailer will carry wheels, tools and supplies for track days. Not everyone can (or would want to) afford a tow vehicle and trailer...

i fit all 4 tires in my car when i had to get my tires changed. One in the spare tire spot, one on top of that, laid a bag down and 2 on the passenger seat

Before I completely gutted my car, I would pull the passenger seat out and load up the car with 4 wheels and tires. It's a viable option for track days. Take out the pass seat, put two in that area, then two in the back. Still enough room for helmet and driver to move around comfortably.

That might be the only option, you can't fit 4 tires in the 370 if you want to keep shifting.

I don't want a full tire trailer, I am leaning toward a tire tail carryiny 1 or 2 tires out back
