Default rear tire carrier

I plan on purchasing the rugged ridge xhd rear tire carrier soon and I see it says that it holds up to 35" tire. My question is Im upgrading to 37s in the near future and was wondering if I could get away with putting a 37" spare on.

I've heard & seen people run 37's on tire carriers (and specifically the one you are looking at) that stated "holds up to a 35'' tire". Now, if it will have issues after some time or wheeling, that I do not know.

x2... my thoughts exactly. Not sure how long it will run before/if any problems start happening
