Question from a first-time Jeep owner. I've got a 2019 JLU Rubicon and have been planning upgrades over time. About to install a lift, and will follow up with bigger tires. I am planning on going from the the stock 33 BFGs to 37s. I plan on keeping the stock wheels (due to cost, weight, and I also like the look), so I am wondering if it is really necessary to buy the 5th 37in tire for the spare? Reading about the extra care/cost to have the larger spare I wonder if it is even necessary. Correct me if I am wrong, but upping the tire size means I should add reinforcement to the tailgate, relocate the brake light, and of course, pay for another tire. I understand if I have a flat, it'll be an awkward drive to get the tire fixed/replaced, but is that the only issue to be aware of? I don't wheel heavily, and don't expect to. I appreciate the help! Please help me understand if there is something i am missing.
