Trunk

Mods, please feel free to move if this is in the wrong area.

I am curious, has anyone successfully filled the 3G trunk with four stock 17s with tires?

I figured asking here would be easier than taking off my wheels and stuffing them into the trunk lol.

thanks

Yeah I don't think so...I can fit 3 golf bags in because of the way they are shaped but I can't see 4 full size wheels with tires on them fitting in that trunk. I do know that you can fit 4 tires in the backseat though!

I've done two, but thats all I needed to do. You MIGHT be able to get three, but no more than that unless you want to tie your trunk closed.

Two in the trunk, two in trash bags in the back seat. I doubt you'll even get three in the trunk.

i've stuffed 4 rims with tires in the trunk of my TL.

they were 225/40-18. Had to deflate the tires to get them and trunk was able to close.

Trunk was empty to begin with.
