| I've got the XD Hoss wheels with 35 12.5s and it wouldnt even go ON the tire carrier because it wouldnt clear the bumper. Like I said, I put a spidertrax spacer behind it, and now it just "contacts the rear bumper. |

Interesting... My old wheels, now my wifes were the same 9"wide with -12 offset which is 4.5" backspacing and didn't have any issues on the carrier. I guess your tires are closer to 35" than mine since 35" is never really 35".
My current wheels have 3.5 backspacing so there is no way I would hit bumper. I still plan to get an aftermarket tire carrier eventually. I currently don't see any problems with it on the tailgate, however over time it may happen. |

| Yeah, every tire type measures different. I want to bumper and carrier mainly because I've drug spare on exit from an obstacle on a few occasions. |

I did it through Northridge4x4.com. It's not on the website but you can call David there and he will hook you up - $385 shipped (but I have to wait 2-3 weeks). I got the sheet metal one, not the tubular one which is on his website. He's been helpful to me on JKF and I've bought from him before. I know that Quadratec carries it too. didn't see it on Trail Duty's site though. |
If it isn't on the site at Trail Duty call.
Phil (Trail Duty) has a vendor account with most companies and can get about everything you want.
I have purchased OR -Fab, Viair, Black rock and other parts through him that aren't on the site. He can order with his vendor account through quadratec also. |
