OK, I don't have a JK yet, this week or next, However when I put 33's on my Unlimited I had to put spacers under the third break light to raise it. I used washers. Papabear

So is a spacer the only way to mount 33 or larger tires on the spare?

Will the washers take up the thread space or will they allow enough to still mount the larger tire on your unlimited Papa? Also, what's the details on OJMiles? PM me if needed.
Thanks,
