I was reading about ski/bike racks for 914s over on the bird site and it got me thinking, could you put a rack on the targa top and a rack on the rear trunk and safely transport a second set of wheels? I'm thinking either two on the rear, one on the roof and one in the front trunk, or even one on the rear, one on the passenger seat, if it will fit.
I can't be the first person to think of this, has anyone tried something like it, and did it end in tears? I drive my car to and from events, and it's pretty much become my daily, so permanent slicks are out of the question. |

With 205/50/15 Hoosiers, I fit 3 in the passenger space and one in the rear trunk. Use some old towels to protect seats/carpet and catch some of the rocks that fall off. I would put one in the passenger footwell, then two on the seat. Once I removed the passenger seat and drove w three in a stack where the seat was. It works (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
