Tires in the trunk
 
Hi guys,
I am currently trying to decide between a 2016 z and a fr-s. I had a question about the trunk space . I live in a area that gets a little snow fall each year and i would need to swap out the normal tires for snow ones in the winter. to make my life easier it would awesome if i could fit these tires in the trunk to drive them to the garage to swap out. Does any one know if you can fit 4 tires in the trunk ( the fr-s is tight but with the back seats down you can) this is one of the last unknown points i need for deciding so your feed back or advice would be awesome .

Hoping to join the z brother hood soon

Not too sure but you might be able to squeeze in 3 in the back and one in the passenger

If you don't mind gutting your interior. I'm not sure about touring package but with sport package setup the most you can do is 3 rims with tires. This is after gutting the interior, two rears (fat as hell) in the back and a front riding shotgun.

You can, however, fit 4 fr-s tires in the z because they come with prius tires and have the section width of a little girl's arm.

Depends on the tire size. I supposed you can squeeze two tires each behind the driver and passenger seat, one on the front passenger, and one in the hatch.

But honestly I lol at your reason for deciding one car over another because the one time you need to swap tires. Get the fr-s. You're not ready for a Z.

Edit: profile says you have a nissan frountier.

Here is a quick DIY courtesy of kenchan's tips and tricks for idiots.

1. Drop the tires and wheels off in the truck.
2. Get them mounted
3. Drive them back home and install on the Z.
4. Done

I highly doubt neither car can fit 4 tires. Just get a friend to help you carry the tires there.

By the way, this has got to be the most irrelevant factor to consider b/w the Z and FR-S

You: "Cuz it can fit 4 tires......bro"

wow so a lot of you don't read a post in full. i never said this was a deciding factor just a last point i didn't know to add the list of stuff i'm already using to consider . the truck will be gone when i buy the new car so not a option

in my 350Z, i was able to fit 4 tires. 2 in the passenger seat, and two in the rear. however, keep in mind that the 350Z has smaller tires and it was a tight fit. with the 370Z having wider and bigger tires, it would probably be 3 tires.

So you don't know a single person with a truck, suv, wagon, etc. that would be able to help you out once or twice a year...the I agree with this "Naw...Just get the Frs!"
