I put a spare on mine when I travel. 285/75/16 fits fine, not sure about a 315/75/16. I made a mount I bolt to the rack, then bolt the spare to it. I've posted a few picks, look under crop000s or crop000. Holler at me if you need some more pics.:beerchug:

Thanks looks very good.i wander if you have to have the taller rack or could i buy the low profile and would it work with a spare on top or look as good as the higher profile like you have ?what i mean is i want the low profile to use every day but would still put the spare up there when needed.i guess it will still look as good as yours.

I'm sure you could put a spare on the low profile rack. I just like the taller sides due to all the stuff I carry. I do alot of diving and camping. So I can fill up the rack with tanks and camping gear and have the rear cargo area for dry things and electronic type stuff. Post some pics when you get it. I'm sure you'll love it. They are VERY WELL made.:beerchug:

Yes. You can order the stealth rack with a tire carrier up top. It is a special order, but can be done.

I looked at that but I don't carry an extra spare all the time and wanted all the space I could get. I wish GOBI made a removeable piece that went above sunroof that you could use for storage and take off as you see fit.

I'll take a pic of the mount I made/use in the next day or two, it worked out pretty good. I fixed it where I can hang a lock on it for those who are in need of others stuff.:fdance:
