Question Anyone Have A Tc Design Bar Installed In Their Car?

I was thinking of having TC Design put a roll bar in my car but had a few questions if someone out there already had one put in. Can the backrest of the back seat stay in with just squishing the sides in where the bar would pass by. And most importantly, can you still get two tires past the bar into the back seat. I have to put two in the back seat and two in the trunk when I go to the track. I hate to turn this into a full on track car but after seeing what can happen at anytime I think I need a little more margin on the safty side. Thanks in advance for any input on the subject.

IIRC, the TC bars are each custom done. Theres a couple evo guys that have them, some can fit tires, some cannot. Your best bet is to contact TC themselves and let them know what you want

another tire solution is to get a trailor hitch and get a tire mount. Carries 4 tires outside the car.

Yep, the Tire Tail works really good for this.




I sold off my hitch a while back, but I have the Tire Tail available for purchase (at a great price). I've gotten lazy and just drive to THill with my R compounds on the car.

If you want a new one, their website is http://www.tiretail.com
