E92 Coupe trunk size holds 4 wheels/tires?

Quattro98 · 05-24-2011, 09:38 PM

Hi,

I have a 335i coupe now, but I've never loaded it with tires before. Does anyone know if the M3 coupe will easily hold 4 wheels & tires with the seats folded?

Thanks!

Only if you're willing to trash the interior

Don't have concrete advice, but it definately won't be "EASY" if at all possible. Heck, you can't even put 2 tires in the trunk(without seats folded down).

I've put 4x 18" VMR VB3 wheels in their boxes with the seats folded if that helps

Thanks for the replies. I'm trying to find out how difficult it is to transport a set of track wheels & tires in the E92 coupe.

I've transported all 4 of my 19's, 3 in the trunk with seats down and fourth riding shotgun, wrapped in a beach towel and seatbelted in. It's possible with no passengers.

Fold the seats, i was able to put 6 20" wheels just make sure u have a lot of paddings to protect the interior

dibxna · 05-25-2011, 12:07 AM

big enough to fit myself in. im about 5'10 and 180 pounds. so... you know.... yeah... hmm

I put three in the back seat and the 4th in the trunk when I go to the track.
Narrower tires might fit 4 across in the rear ( I have 4 - 275/35/18's).

I bought tire wraps to put on the tires to keep it clean when they are in the car or being stored.

When I put the rear seat down they did not fit laid on their sides. I needed the vertical space of the rear seat. this way I had more trunk space open and the passenger seat was also open.

Should fit just fine, just have a lot of protection for your interior.

ShadeD1 · 05-25-2011, 06:42 AM

No problem at all, I get 4 285/30/18 in the car for track events. I stand 3 up in the folded down back seat and one lies flat in the trunk. I got tire covers from tire rack and a long come along strap from walmart which I run from the luggage hooks in the trunk around the tires to keep them from landing in the front seat when I brake. I even have room for my luggage, cooler, and track tools. I could take a passenger with me and their luggage too, plenty of room and no trashed interior. I'm taking my wheels to the tire shop next week for new rubber (again), I can post a picture after I get them loaded if you like.

No problem at all. 4 wheels/tires is nothing. Fold your rear seats down and protect the interior with a blanket or something.

donovan · 05-25-2011, 10:03 AM

pull an old sheet in the back seats...

Quattro98 · 05-25-2011, 10:31 AM

Sounds like it's not a problem but not that much fun. I haven't taken the 335i to the track & I've never put my snow tires in the car for transport, so I just wanted to know how bad it is. My old A4 was really easy to pack with 4 tires flat in the trunk & folded back seat with plenty of space for tools/jack/brake supplies/etc.

Thanks for all of the replies.

sameh · 05-25-2011, 11:03 AM

Maaaan, I just did that 10 days ago..3 tires in back seat and one in the trunk..I thought of taking a picture for a question like this but didn't..stupid
I also transported a whole mailbox in my E92 the pole went through the ski opening and rested comfortably on the arm rest while the box sat in the trunk..again thought of taking a picture and didn't

+1, no problems at all

It is REALLY easy, takes me less than 5 minutes to load.

4 rims with tires is easy if you fold the seats down
