Fitting 4 wheels in car

Strangler · 07-28-2012, 08:06 PM

Someone posted a picture of fitting 4 wheels in the Z and I can't find the picture anymore. Does anyone know for sure if they would be able to fit 4 wheels in the Z?

2 in the truck one in driver's seat, one in passenger seat. perfect fit.

or borrow u-haul or homedepot truck

You can but it's dangerous. I know the picture you are talking about, the OP of that post said that the tire was making steering and shifting very difficult and had no visibility out of the car.

I was thinking, is this even possible?

I wouldnt risk damaging the seats or anything on the interior just rent a car on hotwire it will cost you like 50 bucks for the day

Remove the passenger seat, should only take 10 min

You have to know someone with a vehicle appropriate for this task. It's unreasonable to use your Z for this.

cossie1600 · 07-29-2012, 12:57 AM

or you can ghetto rig it

Heres the thread i found of someone putting it in there friends wrx. Man it looks tight.

Will It Fit?

^^^ Poor poor interior.

LakeShow · 07-29-2012, 02:09 AM

Wow good luck with fitting that!

Strangler · 07-29-2012, 02:22 AM

LOL that's hillarious. I could've sworn the post I saw awhile back had all the wheels fit perfectly in the Z. From the looks of this, it probably won't look pretty at all.

Ire · 07-29-2012, 02:25 AM

uh, thats just ONE tireless rim on the Z, the rest arent even in the same car. it looks like a civic

Kingbaby · 07-29-2012, 03:58 AM

It's two in the trunk minus the spare...two in the passenger seat staggered to the dash!

I've done it twice now, can repost pics from the first time, its on here from about a year ago. Take out spare, one goes there, one half over the center bar, two in the passenger seat. You have to roll down the window, hold up the tires to close the door. Likewise you have to hold them up to get into reverse on the MT, or plan ahead to drive straight out. Again you have to limp along in 4th (ok, maybe zoom).

I wouldn't recommend it to anyone else, but the Z is my only car and I won't be afraid to do it again.
