4 tires in the car??

Ok so stupid question here but I am sure you guys know the answer. It will make my life much easier to know ahead of time...


I have an 08 X model. I am going back to the stock 17" wheels for winter and buying snow tires. Will 4, 17" tires fit in the G between the trunk and back seat????

I already know only 1, 17" wheel and tire mounted will fit in the trunk, but will just the tires alone fit? The tires should be more flexible and I am thnking two in the trunk and two in the back seat but I need to cofirm.

Thanks in advance!!!

Yes, all four will fit between using the trunk and the backseat.....even with wheels mounted.

How can you guys disagree?

I know I couldn't get two 17 inch wheels with tires mounted in the trunk. I tried.

This is actually important if I have to make two trips to the tire shop, or borrow my buddies Tundra...

I purchased four blizzaks mounted on 17" 350Z wheels from a person in the US. I made the 1 hour drive to the US border to pick them up and was able to fit 2 in the trunk and two in the backseat. So I have already done this and can confirm that they will fit.

Eight tires on your car 4 outside & 4 inside....LMAO!

Of course they'll fit, one in the trunk and three in the backseat. I do cover
the back seat with old bath towels to keep everything spotless/clean.

OK thanks. I guess they will fit! It's good to know. Going to buy Hak R next week I think...

I carried four 18" tires and rims in my trunk and back seat as Garnet Canuck said, no problem

Easy" Remove spare, sink a tire in there (will be a little raised above normal trunk floor line, but not by much) then one on top of it in trunk and two in back seat.... no problems... did this with four mounted stock 17's... be careful removing wheels from back seat, rubbed the roof... now I have a black mark on the roof
