Question Impala trunk specs questions

Hi, I am new to the forum and I am thinking of getting an impala this year. Last week I test drove both a 2009 and 2011 Impala in Welland, ON and the ride feels great aside from the head rest which can be upgraded probably.

Anyway, my question is, will the trunk fit 4 full sized tires without having to put them in diagonally? Could someone check? I have an outdoor staging business and would like to know. Cause if it can fit 4 tires in the trunk in stacks of 2, it will easily fit my equipment. Thank you.

Also, are you able to disable the key-less entry system?

Thanks for the reply, i am asking if you can fit 4 car tires in the trunk: 2 stacks of two 220/60r16 side by side or one in front of the other.

Confirmed, 4 full sized tires (235/60-16) will NOT fit in the trunk. But, it's close. I was within 2-3 inches of getting the second pair to fit.
