Anyone got a pic of a 285/70/17 in the spare tire slot?

I feel like you'd lose some clearance having a chonky boi down there... has anyone stuck one underneath and got a photo of clearance?

Trying to decide if I want to toss mine under there or get a bed rack mounting solution.

Thanks~

I have 285 70 17r nitto ridge grappler on Icon rim 0 offset under its a tight fit if you let out some air give you a bit more room but make sure you have a compressor handy

But you can hit the tire on stuff without too much consequence - unlike metal components

Appreciate the photos. Yeah, I agree it can serve as an "underside bumper" of sorts, but I'm going to see about bed rack mounting it. I don't have an RTT, and don't plan on getting one soon. I know it will screw with my center of gravity a bit, but we'll see how it goes. Thanks for the feedback, guys.

Curious if this is hitting your track bar ? After I installed my KDSS track bar relocation kit the 275/70r17 spare hits the bar and won't fit. Annoying

I was able to get it, but barely ! Had to hold it towards the passenger side an inch or so as I tightened the chain.
With the track bar angle corrected it changed that space a bit.
