Not worried about that spare causing damage from being too heavy? I am currently not running a spare until I get a different tire carrierPicked mine up yesterday in Ohio and drove back to NY. Wind gusts of 30-40 mph and it was all over the place. When the wind wasn't blowing drove similar to my wife's grand cherokee Great ride, wind noise similar to my 2017. Really comfortable leather seats. Once I got home put on Cooper 35's on Fuel Anza wheels that I had already purchased. I was a little disappointed in the wheels not having more pop to their appearance. The stock ones do, but everybody has them and I don't really like flat faced wheels. The stance with the fuels is a few inches wider and taking it for a ride, it was more stable than the stockers with a similar ride. Spent this morning putting in minor stuff like floor mats, grab handles and the bumper hoop and unpacking the soft top. Overall I couldn't be happier with the purchase. Oh, other than the dealer sneaking in his nameplate badge by the license plate. Fail. Lol, already off.

My spare weighed 93 pounds, about 19 more than the factory and Jeep says the tailgate is good for 85 pounds and I'm only 8 pounds heavier than that. I would guess their 85 pound limit is a little on the low side, like manufacturers do tow ratings and gvwr. I added the Rough Country relocation mount already. It's not touching the tire bump stops so I won't be going off road until I buy some sort of aftermarket tailgate reinforcement, but I'm not overly concerned about 8 pounds over Jeep's limit on the roadway. A few posters have suggested that the 85 pound limit was in addition to the stock spare. I don't know how accurate that info is.Not worried about that spare causing damage from being too heavy?

Congrats! She's beautiful.Finally got mine today!!!
Love the Punisher decal. Where did you get it?I added the flag and removed the wrangler unlimited decals and replaced them with modified punisher decals.
Ebay. The guy actually made it for me after I asked him to add since 1941 and remove the original latin that was on there. He has two versions, one with JEEP across the punisher skull and the one I bought without it. I looked for a link but just the original was on there. You can contact him and he can add the 1941 and/or jeep.Love the Punisher decal. Where did you get it?
