how to transport wheels to the track?

Is there a roof rack or something I could use to transport my track wheels/tires?
Do you guys simply put them in the back seat?

Yeah, don't risk your roof, trunk and back seats are the safest ways.

One of our members tows a small trailer behind his Evo. It is just big enough to hold 4 tires and a large cooler. PM Turbo Dad if you want to see pics. Works great!

I put all 4 in the back seat. I have to pull the baby seats to do it though...

I put two in the trunk and the other two in the backseat with a blanket over the seat and the wheels/tires in a big plastic bag. Those small trailers are pretty nice.

Trailer would be nice.
One thing I did not say is that the track I am going to is about 5 hours away.
Since I usually take my wife with me -tunk is already full. We always go there for 3 days.
Thanks.

just buy the 4x8 trailer from Harbour Freight, they had a special not too long ago for under $200. It folds in half too so you can store it in your garage standing up.
