yes you can

Yes, easily. Just throw down the back seats and it'll fit fine. I've fit 18" wheels in the back trunk/seats area more than once.

It's a tighter fit if you got tires on them but should still work. I didn't try to squeeze it in but I've fit 3 tires + 17"s in the back, plus 1 tire+17" wheels in the passenger seat before.

Put the back seat down, stack them up.

Put a blanket or something soft against the tire and the back of the front chairs, they love to rub.

Yeah... but it can be a little tricky
 
With back seat down... I was able to get four 17 x 8.0 wheels with Mich PSS tires into the FRS.. but it took a bit of wrangling.

1. The two wheels/tires furthest front - side-by-side -- had to be tilted up (rear-facing section) so that the 3rd wheel tire could slide under a bit... enough so that the 4th wheel/tire could then be put in last.

2. Depending on how far back the driver's seat must go for you to be comfortable, you might find that you have to move the seat a little more forward than you'd like to make it all work.

Maybe I didn't configure this right, but it seemed to be what needed to be done. I'm not sure how the claims that "4 wheels/tires, a jack, and a tool box will fit..." works... especially if you have a passenger in front. Maybe the claim is based on stacking the jack and tool box on top of the front-most wheels/tires.

That's like fitting 8 tires. Won't work.
