Getting tires and rims home

I am picking up some rims tommorow and just realized how I will get those puppies home in my coupe. Im think of getting the new wheels mounted on the car and take the 19" oems inside the car, I think I can fit two in the trunk and two on the back seat?

anyone transport 4 wheels (tires mounted on rims) in a coupe?

again thanks in advance

well i transported my volks when i got them, no tires, but in bulky boxes. i did 1 in the trunk you might fit 2 then folded the seats and packed 2 more behind each seat... with tires thats gonna be quite a project... dont forget to bag them first. and good luck!

first off ...

what are the new rims you are picking up?

second ... ask if you can leave them there and go rent a Uhaul pickup for $21 bucks. Its worth it to your interior. If you went through Status, it shouldnt be a problem. My OEM 18"s have been there since yesterday and I'll be borrowing the wife's Odessey to go up and retrieve them tomorrow morning.

picking up the SF-Winnings 9.5+19/10.5+17 in diamond black

I think I can fit them in by removing the spare tire, placing two stacked in the trunk and two on the back seat. or I may just take my dads g35 sedan should fit in there no problem.

Its a drive for me to Status (70-80 miles) so I might just take the sedan and not risk not being able to take a rim home

I greatly appreciate your guys help. Thanks!

You can fit all 4 19" OEM's in the backseat. No need to fold down the backseat. Just put them all vertically with 2 tires sitting on each seat. Make sure they are all bagged in clean plastic bags, so your seats won't get dirty.

you can fit all 4 in the back seat of the sedan, i did it with my oem 18's (with tires mounted) since i dont have a trunk (sound system). 2 in the trunk and 2 in the back seat is easy in the sedan.

If anyone is intrested in knowing how it went, the guys at Status bagged them up for me and loaded them in the car for me! two went perfect in the trunk with the spare tire and mat removed, and the other two went in the back seats just fine
