I'm assuming a custom (unique) system will be needed to be placed on the cross bars that probably isn't readily available, but I think it'd be much nicer to do that than stuff them in the car or pull a tire trailer.
Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks.

I have the yakima Q-tower with the Inno cargo box (see my set-up a few posts up) but have since gotten the yakima load warrior same as the one on this post

The basket itself isn't very big, plus the cross bars aren't spaced very far apart because of our relatively short roofs, so there are not so many other options available (length-wise). I have 235s for track tires and transported 2 of them to and from the track with no problem. You can probably stack them higher or have them over hang but I was only comfortable stacking 2 up there though, and carried the other 2 in the back seat. Good luck and make sure to post what ever you end up with
