Room for putting away 18" tires/wheels in IS250/IS350?
Hi,
For those who have used a separate set of wheels for the snow tires for the winter, do you have any problems in putting your 18" summer tires & wheels into the trunk and the back seat space when you transport them from the tire shop?
I can see putting two tires & wheels in the trunk presents no problem but putting the other two in the back seat space is a challenge.
I am a new IS350 owner waiting for the winter tires to be put on and the stock 18" wheels and tires look too big to fit in the car properly.
Any comment is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I changed them out myself...I have a 3 ton hydraulic jack and a set of jack stands...takes about 25 minutes to do all 4. But I used separate wheels when I used to do it. But I think it would get to be an issue ...just bring big garbage bages to store the wheels/tires in so that they don't dirty the interior or the trunk.
