    Nice.. I once took 4 wheels with spent tires AND 4 new tires down to the tire shop in the Miata. It was quite the ordeal. Note for the future: Once you have a rollbar, you will find it makes a great place to strap tires to.

    Yep. Wrong size (195/55/15) for STR, ok size for T-CS, but cheaper while I learn to drive the car.

    There was a guy (John) in an NB who used to beat POS Racing all of the time in CS that would bring his R-comps to each event without a trailer. I can't believe that he could stuff them in there.

    I fit four 225/45/15 in the front seat once. With a hard top on and stock seats in place.
    Blah blah blah!

    I left the trunk open and put 4 tires in the trunk, tied another four to the rollbar, put 3 in the passenger seat, held 1 with my left hand and had 1 around my neck.
