I would like to increase my 15" tire size a bit and was wondering which size is the biggest to fit in the spare tire carrier up front. I have heard mention of alteration to the carrier to accomodate bigger sizes, but am unfamiliar with them. (any photos available?) I also once saw a photo of someone who had ground just a little off the frame rails that surround the spare to allow storage of a bigger tire. Thoughts and recommendations appreciated. Thanks, Brian |
