I spent most of the weekend cleaning and organizing, mostly in the garage. Goal is to get everything off the floor on the "low part" (all but the front 3' of the garage which is raised) except cars. I am close, but need to a way to safely store wheels and tires on the wall. For starters lets just assume four 17x11's with 315's will need to fit.

Here are a couple solutions I have found.

1. Sold by Tire Rack. Not sure it is quite wide enough.

2. Griots garage, would need four of these to start.

Simialr to Rob's suggestion ...

2x4 screwed to the wall

Hinge another 2x4 at the bottom and use some chain so that it stops at a 90* angle.

Then a pair of sections of rigid metal conduit to cradle the tires.

Then when you have no tires to mount, it folds up against the wall.
