Spare tires is a 33 on stock tire carrier with no problem. Been there for over a year now. Rubbed a little on the air dam at full turm but once removed no problems

Are your stops able to help support the New Tire on the Carrier? Mine did not...purchased the Daystar Stops for the tailgate...but never got to use them. Got a new bumper with carrier---if you want them $20 plus shipping and they are yours...PM me if interested---Joe

The spacers will help. I get a small amount of rubbing when I am in reverse and turning hard at the same time. Not a big deal and it doesn't happen all the time.

I figured Id ask here about another stock carrier question. From what i can see if i have 4.5 backspacing the stock carrier will work, and with some tail gate bump stops be fine (maybe the reinforcing kit from MBRP to). Or will you still need one of those spare tire relocation brackets. Sorry for the pestering questons just want to make sure i go the right route on this until i can get a new rear bumber
