I've got the Allen 4 bike carrier, it fits in the 2" Reese receiver
and works great! The frame itself is made specially angled to go past
the spare tire.

Here is the link to Quadratec, notice there are a few different styles
but the one you'll be looking for is the one with it angles off the
bottom and not a straight 90 degree bend. Like most of the standard
racks are.

This is the one I have with a 33" spare no problems...

Hope this helps.

BTW:

They do make these in 2, 3 & 4 bike setups as well, Also they do fold
back out of the way (not all the way) so you can get into the back of
your Jeep.... I'm running it on a 2000 Wrangler and it works for me.
