Does 4 17" wheels fit in the rear of a D3?
Yes, stupid first question, but will go and fetch a set of spare wheels and would like to know if family can come or if i'll need to fold 2nd row to fit the wheels? They are the normal 235/70-17.
Many thanks

Yes, and you don't have to put any row 2 seats down either I believe that every human has a finite number of heart-beats. I don't intend to waste any of mine running around doing exercises.

Without pasengers I believe you can get 10 wheel n tyre combos in the D3 with seats folded [think Slimer holds that record].
Thought I was doing well with just 9 sets I was a normal heterosexual chap, but in these new woke awakenings I now identify as a Wardrobe.
If it's not too late; bring some packing material (dog bed, blankets etc) to wedge them in, as otherwise the wheels will spend the journey bashing the seat backs and tailgate as you brake and accelerate.Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana

Eight fit
If I'd known 10 was the record I might have shoved my two spares in just to try it Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)
