I haven't tried but I doubt it will work. If you remove the spare you might be able to fit 3 in the back.

As I said, I've never done this but think a tire would be too big to fit in the passenger seat. Maybe not. I'd use something like old towels or sheets to protect the interior. Do you have a friend with a pickup/SUV/&c?

Unfortunately nope, I know some people with four door cars but it would be a big inconvenience for them since it is far away. I was thinking about renting a car but of course they aren't open on Sundays and will charge me out the *** since I am 23 and not 25

yah, i have a hatch to do those tasks. i hate taking my nice cars to the tire place cause even if they mount without scuffs, they usually scuff the lug bores with their impacts.
ive had my local tire place allow me to remove and mount the wheels back on the car in their parking lot, but that was more of a pita vs just taking my wheels in loose in my dd. i recommend asking a friend to carry the wheels in for you. |

Well I am not mounting them right away. I'm picking them up this weekend and storing them for a few weeks. If I can get them to my apartment I can get a friend to help me take them to the tire place or even mount myself.
Anyone know about the ASA's fitting with my sport package ? |

Any tips on how to place them? Or will it be obvious?

I'd think its obvious unless someone has zero problem solving skills or can't do puzzles. Make sure the trunks gutted. Easy is 2 in trunk, 1 in front seat, 1 behind front seat.
Ps I roll around town with passenger seat out. Only takes 2 minutes to pull and install for the wifey.
