apparently you CAN fit 8 tires in a twin.
I will give it a try fitting 4 wheels and 4 tires in somehow and report back.

I can confirm you can for (4) 17x9 wheels and (4) 245/40/17 tires in the FRS. Separated.

Wheels stacked in back seat with protection/padding. One tire between the 2 wheel stacks in back seat. 2 tires in front seat. One tire in trunk.

Probably better way to do this tho

Yeah, 4 tires will fit no problem. 3 on folded back seat, one in trunk. Plenty of space left for luggage, tools and full use of passenger seat.

17x9 Wheels
245/40/17 Tires
I can confirm - I did this today. I had 4 225/40/18 tires and 4 18x8 rims packed into my car on the way to the tire shop. It was a jigsaw puzzle!!!

I had 2 tires in the passenger seat, 1 tire hangin over the passenger seat, with headrest removed and 1 tire laying diagonal against the tire hanger over it. Then I had 2 rims stacked on top of one another behind the drivers seat and 2 rims in the trunk area. It took me a few mins to place all of this into the car...

In comparison - putting the 4 stock wheels, with OEM tires back into the car was a breeze... can easily fit them in a number of ways.

I had 2x 18x8.5 and 2x 18x9.5 rpf1 with 235 and 255 tyres fitted. Unfortunately I have the raised donut for the spare so nothing fit into the boot at all, but still managed to get them all in the back seat.
Passenger seat all the way forwards, and my seat way forward, so I was basically on top of the steering wheel...and I'm 6'2" haha.
But I got through the 1.5 hour mountain trip like that.

Since it's about the season when most are taking their winter tire off. I figured I'd post up pics of 4 tires and 4 rims fitting in the frs. Please forgive the cell phone quality.
