I think I have too many tires and wheels...
...and this isn't counting the full set on the car, plus a full-size spare.

Well...in my pic four are a new set for the wife's car, and two are replacement 225/50 blizzaks to replace the 235/50s that rub that are coming off my rear 17's for the winter, and being sold to a G35 guy

When I've seen those, the logic behind it is so that if his driveway ever floods, it won't mess with the house, it will spill over into the garage and that will be the end of it! Also, you can clean your floor and keep the water contained or away from things stored in carboard boxes.

That's definitely a curb... you can see the other 2 350z touring wheels are sitting higher than the rest.
Jeffy, what's that wheel on the most right? Cobra wheel? Wait, so you got 2 sets of touring wheels?

Nice sets. For those of you what live in northern climates, where do you do you store them, in a climate controlled area or in a spot like a shed where the can be subjected to heat and cold?
The curb is likely building code; the floor of the garage has to be lower than the house because carbon dioxide is heavier than air. The curb in my old townhouse garage was not that high or wide, but it had one. My new house doesn't have a curb, but the house is instead three steps above the floor.

I dunno actually. But you can see the hot water heater back there and the washer dryer is also on the curb. I think if you ever have a leak, it drains down away from the house and not into it. I know

yes it's a 17x8 cobra wheel. There are no touring wheels in that pic. Only the G coupe wheels and the Z TRACK editions. Only one set of each.
Although I did have some Z touring wheels on the max when I sold it.

For me it's the crawl space (heated since it's a partial basement), but nowhere near as "scientific".

Nice collection of wheels. 
Jeff do you still have those 350z Track wheels? Those look nice! How much do they weigh compared to the 19" G35C wheels? Anyone know? (or is that in the wheel weights sticky? I'm too lazy too look)
