Tire carrier for better visibility?

[mousehunter]

I probably can not add anything useful. You are limited by your bumper unless you move the tire back. That will cause stress. Some bumpers may have cutouts that allow you to run lower - but then you will still be limited by your receiver (if you intend to use it.

Now for 2 joke answers - if you raise your front seats, you will get better visibility. Likewise, if you put on a body lift, the bumper will be that much lower - abet that is only slightly more useful that using smaller tires.

My spare is only a 32 but it is mounted low and close, as are the Rotopax. I did this purposely for good visibility.This might not be good for rock crawling but I don’t do that.

Here is a morryde with a 35. Visibility is very good. I did have to drill some more holes in the bracket, but that is cake.

The tire carrier and bumper is Smittybilt. The Rotopax mount is homemade.
