Question How many tires can you fit INSIDE your Z?

YES, I mean INSIDE.

I'm trying to figure out if I can haul snow tires/summer tires in my Z back and forth to the shop those magical two times a year. If I only had my car, I'd be able to figure it out myself, but alas...

Two. Tops. One in the front passenger seat and one in the trunk. I've tried to fit more, but no luck.

i got 4 stock sized tires in the car when i changed them. 2 in the front pass seat (upright and in the direction of the regular wheels), 1 in the spare well (removed spare), and one in front of the strut bar, resting on the speaker hump. i obviously had it all wrapped in towels...

it just requires a little planning. the Z is a thinking mans car.

so your using the same rims on both tires? otherwise why not change em yourself/ a quick floor jack and a torque wrench and your set, you can do a better job yourself since few shops actually torque the nuts to the proper spec, impact wrench is so much quicker.
