Ric Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 16's yes, 17's no Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 With you in the car yourself and nothing in the boot i would say yes. Take the spare wheel out before you set out though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheekymonkey Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Hell yeah. I took 4 wheels/tyres and a trolley track, and a crate of tools in my supra to go on a drifting day Don't bank on having any passengers though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 16's yes, 17's no Whats the difference? Surely they have the same rolling rad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 16's yes, 17's no That makes no sense whatsoever surely if he's looking at wheels AND tyres the rolling radius of said combination would always be the same regardless of wheel size? EDIT: beaten to it by Scotster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 mine didnt, but 16's did, just talking from experiance the 17's are usually wider (mine had 275tyres), thus less space, doesent matter if they are same rolling rad or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADL Mark Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Yes, but it's tight (with UK 17's)! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Didn't know the were wider, also didn't know 275's would go on stock. Living and learning. Still think i could manage it with the spare and tools taken out as long as there was no passenger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazz1 Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 i fitted my 19x12" and 19x9.5" plus a big box of my hks suspension all in my supra but had to lose the spare wheel, thats when i took i down to TDI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheekymonkey Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 back seats down, three laying down in the boot / back seat area, and the 4th went behind the passenger seat for me EDIT I am actually talking about TYRES here before anyone says anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still think i could manage it with the spare and tools taken out as long as there was no passenger. Would make no difference imo as the extra width (if any) would be negligible. I'd take his word over mine however as I've never actually done it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewen Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Take out your spare and boot board beforehand, take a pump, let the tyres down on the ones you are picking up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Take out your spare beforehand, take a pump, let the tyres down on the ones you are picking up. Cept one in case you need it as a spare That way no pump needed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 You can get a set of 16/17/18/19 inch wheels and tyre's in a supra pretty easy (done all of them in my supe): Front one in the boot, a rear and a front on each rear seats (one in at an angle) and another rear on the front seat Just make sure you have plenty of carpet/heavy packing material to protect the body panels, and make sure that wheel on the front seat is strapped in!!

Daston Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 I managed 4 17" wheels and my misses in the car it was a little bit tight. Managed to get the 2 fronts in the boot and the 2 rears upright on the rear seats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ewen Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Was it on here I read about an Elise owner with a flat ? He put the space saver spare on, then found out he had nowhere to put the wheel he'd just taken off except the front seat...which was occupied by his wife.
