How to fit 4 rims /w tires

I was wondering, how do you fit 4 rims + tires in the 8?

2 in trunk and 2 in rear seats?

Thanks

1 in the trunk, 1 in each seat. Or you could stack them in the back seat. I've done it. Make sure you cover the seats with garbage bags or something.

I just got 4 new tires shipped to me for my 8. I brought them to my mechanics shop in my explorer. Problem solved.

LOL, exactly when would you not be sorry for getting into an accident? I mean do you get in an accident w/o tires/rims in your car and think "wow, I sure am glad I got in a wreck!"?

no... but if you get into an accident without rims and tires in your car you dont have to worry about rims flying foward and cutting your head off or flying through the windshield/dash.
