From my understanding if you are using stock rims you can use the stock carrier. I believe you can use it with aftermarket wheels also they just stick way out past the body.

I was told the stock carrier would be fine for AEV Pintler (non-beadlock) and 315/70/17s, but I had to purchase another aftermarket bracket to get the tire out further because it would not install with the stock bumper.

I'm running XD series with 4.5BS. I'm running 35's nitto trail grapplers so im guessing I will be ok with the stock mount

I believe I have the same back spacing. And my wheel doesn't rub the bumper at all. And the 35 is just slightly below the third brake light. (u can't see it in my pic cause I haven't replaced the lense)
