Wow it fits! But damn that looks scary to driver... Make sure you dnt break hard or come to a sudden stop cuz it looks like the rims in the front passenger don't look too secure. Great job though!

yea i was going to say switch one of the rims in front with the tires. that way if you brake hard, your rims dont crash into your windshield

Damn! if the shop is nearby then make 2 trips or get a cab(minivan). I would NEVER have something as big as rims/tires in the front seat next to me(God forbid some clown hits you on your passenger side...wouldnt want to meet Mr.Michelin Man upclose and personal). Nevermind the popped windshield if you gotta brake hard.

I had to drive with a mounted set of four 18s for about 2hours to meet up with a buyer. One in the trunk and 3 strapped/seat belted in the back seat(gs3 thou).

I was planning to put a seat belt around the rims and incline the seat so it fits snuggly between the seat and dash.

nicely done. the most i've done is 4 tires in the rear. if you stack them horizontally, you won't have to move your seat as far up.
