Default REAR SPARE TIRE CARRIER! Budget! ;D

picked this bad boy up the other day while i was vacuuming her out! She's a little luggy but there's no signs of stress or much wear at all! I used all stock parts to make the carrier too. I did have to remove the rear windshield wiper blade to mount up the tire though. :/ but for the price I couldn't really pass it up. I haven't had to use it yet, WISH ME LUCK!

Is it sad that it took me several minutes before I realized it?

Awesome carrier
Just with ya spare, IMO, only use it for emergency's. There is a bit of a difference by the looks, in tyre diameter, which could cause wind-up and damage your drive train...


cheers

Thanks, it took me a while to mount it up completely. But it's easy removal access and the clearance is unbeatable. I'm glad it's gettin so much attention! xD
