Will rims fit inside car?

Hey guys Im getting my winter wheels put on tomorrow and was wondering if my current 193's with tires would fit inside my car to bring them home? Rough estimate with seats folded I can get almost 2x in trunk and then have to stack the others? I appreciate any help.

Thanks.

Dan

LOL, funny post. If you put them in bags you can fit 1 in the trunk, 2 in the backseat, and 1 in the front passenger seat. Yes, they will all fit.

Even better, put them in bags and place all 4 of them on their treads side by side on the back seat (as if they were rolling forward too). Not a single tire in the trunk. I just did this in my e92, I did pad the rear seat some.

I've had 4 18" tires mounted on rims in the trunk and folded down back seats of my E92 plenty of times. 2 side by side on the top of the folded down seats that I'd covered with a big sheet, and 2 in the trunk...1 flat and the other leaning on it. Not a problem at all and no need to use your passenger seat

Sweet thanks guys. I went out and used a bicycle tire to see how well it would work also. Thanks for all the posts.

of course they will! I fit not only my 4 19" m6 reps, but also the 4 unmounted tires (235 and 275) into my coupe. There was literally barely enough room for me to fit, but it was a hilarious challenge, and I was able to take it all to my shop!

no problem at all. I fit in 4 9x18 wheels with 255 tires on all four. One in the trunk, the other 3 standing up (rolling forward to the frontseats) on the folded down back seats. more then space enough!

They will fit, i had 19" wheels in their box and managed to get all 4 to my tyre place to have them put on!

Get beach towels, place 3 in the back and 1 in the boot. Thats wat i did.
