I'm curious how the local Miata drivers get their race tires to/from
the events.  The methods I've heard of are:

1. trailer (Scot, Craig)
2. custom rack (Keith Hearn)
3. two in the passenger seat, one behind the seat, one in the trunk
    (do two fit in the trunk?) (commonly recommended method)
4. four in the trunk, lid and wheels secured with a rope (some dude on
    Miata.net)
5. Just drive on 'em
6. "What other kind of tire is there?" (Eric, Jim...)

I wonder if the wider 6.5" wheels and 205 tires would still fit for
option 3.

Which method do YOU use?
