Only downside for mine has been that it does eat your departure angle a bit or the tire consumes your entire window (I have a 35 on the back). Other than that, I love it. I have the smittybuilt one- definitely does not feel like my jeep is going to break in half

LOTS of careful braking can usually fix this.

I want one of these head units + a backup camera;

Makes hooking up to trailers so easy - don't even need to turn your head.

Then you can tint the rear windows with some Limo tint, prevent thieves from looking into your truck and stealing stuff, and still not care that your spare tire blocks your rear view.
