Just wondering if my 32 x 12.50 17 spare tire on the smittybilt tire rack will be strong enough ?

thanks

I'm not exactly sure about the product you're talking about but if it's a reinforcement for the stock carrier it'll be fine
Even the stock carrier with no reinforcement is fine to run a 32" easily

I would sell the smittybilt garbage and just keep the factory. Then you'll have more money than you started with.

Why do you have an aftermarket tire carrier for 32s? Just curious.

Running a 35 on the factory mount now for over a year and probably 8k-10k miles now with no issues.

Agree,

A friend of mine is running the one with the swing away attracted to the tailgate. It's noisy, needs readjusted constantly ..

I've installed my fair share of bumpers., this is by far the worst quality.


Of course it didn't snap off like a teraflex so that's a bonus

This ^^^^^ an aftermarket carrier(esp smittybilt) is a waste for a 32. Ive had a heavy ass 35 on my factory carrier with no problem. Its probably knocking on being too heavy, but so far, so good.
