8 Tires fit in my car!

I was able to fit 8 unmounted 285 Pirelli DHs into my car. 2 in front. Rear seat down. I unloaded before I snapped a photo.

I may have to start playing Tetris!

Nope - e92. I need to change my avatar as I've had this car for over 5 years.

Don't make me reload them just for a photo op!

We all know how four will fit in the back seat, right?

I put the back seats down. I started with one tire in the trunk in a corner. From the back seat I wedged the next one up and behind that. Then the usual four in the back seat. Then two in the front seat. That sucked the most as I couldn't use the mirrors and see anything on the right side of the car.
