I don't brand match anything on my jeep, I go with what pleases me and gets me over the next rock.

In terms of rear bumpers with tire carriers, I and many other have had great success with the RockHard.

For me it's like this:

Smittybilt knock off stinger front bumper
Poison Spyder BFH rear bumper
GenRight Swing Out carrier (steel)

It's supposed to be a Frankenstein of sorts. Pick whatever works for you and run with it!

No....get whatever you think is best..I've got a JRC Dagger Tire Carrier Bumper for the rear for the best deproach angle and a Expedition one Core Series for the front.
