Mounting Spare Tire

[Mumbly]

Hi all. I'm a bit removed from building a Wrangler. Last was a 2015 JK. Just "finished" a Gladiator build with/for my son and started building a 2021 2 door JL for me. I don't recall if I need anything other than extended bump stops for my new spare tire. Do I need an extension for the tire mount itself? Anything to move the brake light up? 33x12.5R17 Mickey Thompson tires and -12 offset KMC wheels. Any input would be appreciated. Cheers ...

I’m thinking you’re right. Not going to a considerably taller tire if at all. Sport or Rubicon?

- 12 could cause camera-sensor issues. The tire will stick out about 2” more and the camera will be deeper in the wheel. If so, I suggest springing for an adjustable like the TF Alpha to adjust back to the stock bumpers, the camera sticks out further too….
