How many wheels can I fit in my Z?
I have my winter tires on my car but need to get my summer rims/tires rebalanced. Rather than borrow a car, I'd prefer to take them to the shop in my Z.
So how many can I get in my car? I'm thinking two at a time.

Oh jeebus don't put a tire/wheel in the passenger seat. This Is a z, not an f150

it's fine to put one in the passenger seat if you lay it down on a towel or something to protect the seat. i bet if you get creative, you can probably fit all four, just have lots of towels/blankets handy to keep them from scratching anything or each other

Two at most with everything shut...maybe 3 but that would be pointless. Just cover the wheel/tire with a garbage bag and put the seatbelt around the one in the passenger seat. 2 trips required.

The NSX could fit four, but they were smaller. Just had them in tire bags and I could put 3 in the passenger side - one behind seat, two in seat. Tight fit. Trunk had cutout to hold one when you had to use spare (stored in front, compact).
So taking out spare should hold one, passenger seat one or maybe two (their kinda wide) and I bet another would fit in the trunk. I'll try next spring and see

gut the whole entire trunk. take out the same tire i mean everything. Take about five minutes to take out. You can fit one in your passenger or all four in the rear. Ive done it before cause I was lazy to use my dads truck and in a hurry. You will also need to pull up the passenger front sear.

without taking apart your trunk, pretty much 2. one in the hatch, one in the front seat. i have fit 4 wheels alone in my car, but with tires, no way. unless you start removing stuff.
why not just wait till spring, throw them on your car and drive over and have them rebalance them then? |
