Default locating my spare

Jus got my spare tire (33x12.50x 15) mounted on my spare rim. Will it mount back where the original spare was located? If not where are you guys locating your full sized spares?

It could fit, but you would have to extend the rods that threads in underneath so you can still attach the brace that hold up the tire.

I have mine mounted in my bed. I will never put a spare back in the carrier under the truck. I have two spares, one in my truck and one in my wife's truck that are ruined due to the carrier keeping such a pressure on the sidewall that they are both permanently distorted and both tires were flat under the trucks. Both were stock 237/75-15's. Removed the carriers and mounted both in the beds.

Nah I put mine back under there. It's a royal pita getting it up there but it wouldn't last long in the bed at school. Idk what size tires I'm running but I can check tomorrow
