Will this work, and even if it will, should I put tires even bagged on the precious leather?

You can use the bags with no problems - I've done this on two occasions with no marks whatsoever and I have a beige interior. You can place an old blanket over the rear seats for extra protection.

You won't have room for anything else in the trunk or back seat after loading a set of wheels.
