Yes, I'm trying to avoid a fruitless test fitting that involves lugging four heavy rims/tires out to the car in the middle of summer here.

I remember a post from someone who said they fit all four into the Targa but I can't remember if they used the front seat.

That's without using the passenger seat.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

14 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

These are 17" rims and tires ... and it's a Targa. That's without using the passenger seat. Anyone (track guys?) accomplished that? Yes, I'm trying to avoid a fruitless test fitting that involves lugging four heavy rims/tires out to the car in the middle of summer here.

POST 3Original post

I would strongly doubt it. I had a flat last week and had to fit one wheel and tire in the back seat area (I had track stuff in the "boot") and even THAT was tight. Without a passenger you might fit one or two tires in the passsenger seat.

POST 4Original post

Well, would I be able to fit two rear tires (no wheels) in the front passenger seat? My contiSC2's came in yesterday, and I'm taking them down to the shop to have them installed. They are real wide *** tires! 295-30-18

POST 5Original post

Maybe......(without tires) I fit 4 18" wheels (8.5" & 11.0") in my C2. I'll bet you could get one front in the front trunk. The two rears in the back seats and the 2nd front under the hatch in the targa.

POST 6Original post

No way. You'd have a hard time fitting 3 let alone 4 wheels and tires. I had a flat on one of my rear tires (285/30-18) and I had to pull the front passenger seat all the way forward and leave the seat back reclined forward so the tire would fit!

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

An 18" rear will just fit in the front trunk with the spare removed, been there done that ... I remember a post from someone who said they fit all four into the Targa but I can't remember if they used the front seat. The hatch is quite large with the seats folded down. I'm thinking one rear under the front lid, two fronts stacked on one side and the spare and second rear on the other side. These are narrower 17" rims with snows on them.

POST 8Original post

Go for it (post pics!) (btw, I agree it won't work, but it'd be fun to watch the effort)

POST 10Original post

No. I could not even fit just my rear 18x11 track wheels with tires in the back with the seats folded down. You have 2 options: you can either drive on your other wheels or invest in a hitch and trailer.

POST 12Original post

That's it! You people have held me back long enough, I'm going to clown college.

POST 14Original post

I once fit my 4 rims and snows inside my car, very tight fit. The bonnet in a C4S/TT won't fit a front or rear, too small.
