Wife and I were taking a weekend trip and made the mistake of assuming my small carry on hard case with slip in the back ….. nope.
yes I know I can spend $500 on a custom set. Yes I can go to Amazon ( already did) and find alternatives. However , I would value anyone of my brethren that have found a solution. Links if you can
thanks in advance
Strange I wife and I went for a ride over 3 weeks and had 2 hard sided carry-ons in the rear and one in the front. They do fit. Or go soft luggage if you are that bad at puzzles.
Great response … not sure what decoder ring you need to do a simple search on C8 luggage but while I have been in here 15+years any search I do with specific key words rarely comes up with a relevant response …..so there is that.

Thanks for the suggestion … obviously I can figure out a solution and while all these responses are helpful my hope, out of the many thousands of C8 brethren on here some one or many will say “ I got these they work perfectly , here is my experience with them “ or “ got these stay away as they ripped a week later” this is community Sharing experiences and my hope was to tap into that

Someone suggested to me to maximize the utilization of the available space use a 60L Gonex duffle bag in the frunk and two 80L Gonex duffle bags in the trunk. I have the 60L bag it it fits well in the frunk, but I didn't buy the 80L versions yet. These are available on Amazon.

One option. Watch the video showing how to pack the club glove luggage into the C8. Then you can buy it - it is very good quality but expensive - or you can do what I did. Go to the website, see what the dimensions are for the items in the video - and then look for similar luggage in those dimensions.

What’s interesting is the single C8 bag costs less than half of the two bags. You actually save more money by buying two bags separately. As far as I can tell, they are identical.
We put an airline size carry on bag in the front, and our camera in a backpack on top of that.
For the back we bought two soft side duffel bags at Wallys.
SOG brand. They are not quite as elegant as Louis Vuitton, but close enough for the boys I roll with.
Two of those pretty well fill up the back.
Last year, for my birthday, I was given a Travis Matthews 50L. I love it. Very high quality fabric and zippers. Its fits frunk or trunk. Separate shoe compartment that folds up if not used for more clothes space. 3 sided opening on top is nice for access also.
I had wanted one but given 2 😀. One still unused and has the tags. Guess I will keep it till the other wears out. But it has been about a year now and still looks new.
When we took are first road trip (9 days), I picked up a pair of these.
