    how many tires will fit in a VX

    had to move a whole bunch of tires the other day for work so we filled the vx up to capacity.. anyone care to wager a guess how many assorted sized tires will fit in a VX?

    hint..

    smallest tire was a 205/60/15, largest was a 235/70/16 (had 3 of them)

    Well lets tackle this mystery...by your clues the minimum was 4, was the back seat flipped up or totally removed??

    Back seat flipped....... 8
    Backseat removed..... 11

    unless you used the front passenger area, then I'm not sure

    My guess was totally based on no lawn mower or go-kart style tires, lol

    with the backseat and passenger seat removed i fit 14 tires in the vx.... then had another 3 in the roof basket.. nice guesses guys!

    i pulled into the shop and told the guy i was dropping some tires off, he goes oh just three? i said no, 17.. his face kinda glazed over and he goes HUH?? then i opened the passenger door and 2 tires fell out.. opened the rear hatch and 4 more fell out.. was a good time

    then they played the guess the vehicle game.. first guess was a subaru.. second guy was like pshh no its an isuzu! its the new 09 one.. i set em straight

    I don't think I was able to fit 4 285/55-18 tires in mine with the seat fliipped, but I think I got 4 265/60/18 tires in on a couple occassions.

    14 tires... That must have been a sight!
