How many tyres can you carry in a z4 coupe?

Have sone track tyres on the way 225/40/18 square set up. Just wondering, is there any chance they will fit in a z4 e86? Need to get them to the tyre fitters and hoped not to have to drop them in the daily beforehand…

I'd say one in the boot. If you had a convertible you would get in the boot and one on the front seat.

I’ve had 4 wheels with tires in my 86. Two in the front and two in the boot 😝

With the boot shut? If so surely that pushes the real total up to more like six if your wiling to leave the boot open and tied down?

I got two 18" tyres in the boot of my E86 and it shut just fine.

But the other two would need to go in the passenger side.

I had about 100 in mine, but they were just spares for a Lego Technic kit.

But could only fit 1 x 224M wheel/tyre in the Z4MC boot. I could get 6 in my e34 M5 (2 in the boot, and 4 across the rear seats…and space for a passenger.

I probably should have said I got 2 in my 3.0Si boot.

One is a tight fit in the MC - this was a trial fit. I've got a 224 front wheel in there permanently now but obviously the other way up for a bit of peace of mind when I'm far from home on one of B21's Scottish trips!
