Yes. I do it twice a year when I get my snow tires mounted/demounted. fold down the back seat and it's a snug fit.

Four tires mounted on rims.

I unfortunately had the pleasure of putting three wheels/tires mounted inside the trunk with my 255-45-20 setup.
I then put down the passenger back seat and put one on Top with the seatbelt snug around it so it doesn't move while putting a blanket under for good measures. Z

Same here.  I've done it 3 times so far.  Just put both seats down and you can fit all 4 in at once with no problem.  All my wheel/tires have covers so, nothing gets dirty.

Very important point there, having covers for the tires/wheels.  White glove treatment.

Covers for your tires?  I don't think I could ever be that uppity! :bow:

Could also take out the spare for a little extra room if you need it. While there were no tires on the rims 4 19" wide wheels fit pretty dang nicely, but I can't say much for the extra room of the tires. Can we actually fit a full size spare into the spare compartment?

Full size spare will fit granted it will be taller and raise the floor up slightly.
I did this when I went on vacation a few years ago.

I've done it this way too. Easy.

Full size spare fits easy, as the others said. Don't even need to massage any of the metal. If you angle it just right its almost not even noticable with regards to the increased height of the trunk floor. Just be patient. There is also enough room underneath for a proper bottle jack, a stock style scissor jack (the car doesn't have one so you need a jack of some kind), and lug wrench. I usually would put both a bottle jack and scissor jack, a monkey wrench, and a 19.2V impact with proper sockets, as well as a few small pieces of wood when I traveled.
