Default Looking for best tire carrier

I'm looking for a great tire carrier for my 35" Nitto and Gerry cans. I am still pretty set on choosing the OR Fab design but curious if any other great set ups out there (carrier only with stock bumper). I do like the LOD tire carrier and how the cans are mounted on the side but the carrier is only available with the bumper. Any recommendations?

I have a or fab and a poison spider on my other jeep and I like the or fab much better. The or fab is a lot less money and works well.

I have Rock Hard 4x4 and it has proven itself. I've had Garvin and a few others over the years and they have all vibrated, some worse than others.
I saw these at TDS and the spindle is larger than most so it seems more robust than what I've had before.
I didn't look where you're at but if you are in So-Cal you could come look at mine.

Nevermind, you are in Texas!
Anyhow, I'm a fireman too, LA County!
