Re: Spare tire carrier
Yep, either will fit. Make spacers as necessary. BTW, it will tweek the
tailgate and/or spring the hinges and the gate latch. It is a lot of overhung weight to be adding. Aftermarket or homemade carriers that bumper mount are preferred. -- jeff Carl wrote: > 33x12.5? 33x10.5? > > Carl > > "J.

Re: Spare tire carrier
Washers work as spacers? What size will fit w/o a spacer?

Re: Spare tire carrier
I wouldn;t mount anything larger than a 31" tire on the stock carrier.
Anything larger will eventually crack the mountings loose from the sheet metal. If you need to mount a 33" tire get an aftermarket bumper/carrier combo.

Re: Spare tire carrier
I mounted a 31" and it slowly tore the hell out of my tailgate...wait, make
that the second tailgate I've gone through.. I'm not putting it back on untill I find an affordable solution.
