Default Anyone Recognize This Tire Carrier?

Hey all, found this tire carrier on Craigslist and the guy doesn't know much about it, and it doesn't have any visible branding. Anyone know what this is and if its any good?



Thanks!

I believe I saw that on Facebook in the past month though I can't recall the name of it. I'd be curious if the hinges are greaseable or what sort of warranty they offer.

Based solely on pictures though- it's got to be better than the Chinese knock offs and better than the factory hinges. If it's decently priced, I'd give it a shot.

Good call on the hinges, I'll ask him that. He's asking $280, which is a good deal if its not a Chinese POS. I think I'll offer $250 and go with it. Right now I'm running the factory carrier with 35"s and it rattles like crazy.

I think at $250 you'd be in a decent spot. I want to say it was $400-500 when I looked and the other ones of a similar style and good quality are ~$600 and up (Metalcloak, MorRyde, Teraflex).
