Collecting Wheels in an Impreza
 
Has any one ever collected a set of wheels in their Impreza?

Im after a set & have no other vehicle at hand to get them in, Don't want to drive to Fleetwood & then find out they wont fit in the car :wonder:

yes they will 2 or 3 in the boot depending on if they are 17s or 18`s and the rest on the back seat.

Im hoping to get some 18" ones, Depends what scoobyspares have

I've done it in a classic, two in the back seat, (take an old sheet or something to wrap them in), and two in the boot.

That's what I was thinking but really wanted to confirm it first,

Scoobyspares is 57 miles from me & didn't really fancy wasting the fuel there & back.

Saying that I can hire a small VW Caddy van for the day for £25 & just need to put the fuel I use back in

No, do it in the Impreza!! They'll fot just fine, Ive done it myself a few times.

oldman-wrx 21 April 2013 11:38 AM

without tyres two in boot and two in back

with tyres one in boot and three in back

just done this with 17'' :)


ooh and a wheelie bin bag for each

I've done it in two newage's. One with no back seats but with a cage in and I got two in the rear, one in the boot and the other on the passenger seat.

The other car that had rear seats, I can't remember exactly how but I did do it. I'm sure I couldn't get two in the boot though:wonder:

Will probably cost the same in fuel in the Impreza as it would hiring the van & putting fuel in that :lol1:

Surely it'll only cost about £30 in your Impreza, minus all the messing about getting to the van and then dropping it off again. Then the fact that you'll enjoy driving your car:)

Ive had 3 X 17`s in my boot with RE070`s on, No spare wheel and boot trim so easy to get 3 in, 18`s will only get 2 in and the rest on the back seat.

Bob99 21 April 2013 12:51 PM

I have never had a problem getting four 18 x 8 wheels and tyres in the back of the blobeye, it is how I get to all the sprints etc, tools in the boot etc

CREWJ 21 April 2013 12:58 PM

I've had 4 wheels with tyres in my classic saloon many times.

ditchmyster 21 April 2013 02:23 PM

See this is why Wagons rule 5 wheels no problemo.:lol1:

dunx 21 April 2013 04:47 PM

I've had four 8" wide rims with 235's on the back seat of my bugeye, as Alcazar said, wrap in a sheet or poly to avoid muck on the seats.

M444GY 21 April 2013 05:40 PM

i had 10 wheels in the back of my wagon (without tyres) lol , or in the saloon . 1 in the boot 3 in the back seats

Gava 21 April 2013 06:36 PM

D.O.M 21 April 2013 07:08 PM

Without tyres they should all fit in the boot.
I recently had four 18x9.5 wheels in the back of my hawk.

Justme103 21 April 2013 07:12 PM
