mikeycb, the link i posted takes all the guess games out of the equation, its a hitch that holds 4 wheels/tires and is detachable very easily

Remove the tool well and you can fit one wheel in the trunk. Then remove your passenger seat and you should be able to put 3 wheels there?
, but no need to remove the passenger seat. The three in the passenger seat prevent you from safely seeing out that side of the car, but it can be done. If you plan on hauling an extra set of wheels often, tire trailers are nice:

ask Beb, she has done it before, if i remember correctly, take of the spare and place one there. remove the air in one wheel and take out the tool tray and place one there. the other 2 can go onto the passenger seat.

I did it last year when I had to deliver 4 wheels to the guy that was purchasing them. One in the trunk, and 3 in the passenger seat. I had to have my top down though.

It did this last week.... 4 wheels minus tires. 2 in the passenger side ( one in the seat, one in front of the seat on the floor ) and 2 in the trunk minus the spare tire.

But with tires I had to make 2 trips

Awesome suggestions guys, Jonanator hit the nail on the head though it's just for a one time delivery

I know one does fit in the trunk when you let the air out so I'm going to give that a shot and see how she goes with 3 on the passenger seat. If it rains I'm going to pull the passenger seat.

Worst case I'll just "put one on my head." I'll secure it with bungees of course The trailer hitches really are the best idea if you're going be carrying wheels to the track often. That rack for sale is really sweet though.

1 in the trunk, with 3 on the pass. seat. no tires installed though. Yeah, the best solution is to buy my hitch !
