Default Re: 38" rear spare tire

Any tire should fit fine height wise (35, 37, 38, etc).

The backspacing is what's going to be a minor issue. The OEM arm is designed to mount a wheel with 5.5" BS. If your BS is less than that you may find that the rubber of your sidewall doesn't actually touch the metal of the carrier when the tire is mounted...basically the tire will sit out a little further.

Default Re: 38" rear spare tire

so as long as its not a bigger back space(5.5+, which mine isnt) it should fit fine, it will juse stick out and not be supported by the frame of the swing. so being that mine is a 4.5" BS, mine will stick out 1" more than it does now? not to mention the tire is a bit wider that the stock tire size anyways...right? so maybe 2" or so further than it does now. which isnt a big deal.
