Default Spare Tire Question

Next week I am having a small lift done and replacing my tires with 30" tires. Curious to know if I have a 30" spare mounted also, if it will fit in the stock spare location? Thanks.

Yes it will fit. You will probably have to face the front of the rim towards the plastic panel so you can utilize the stock bolt and nut that holds the wheel in place. You can fit upto a 31" tire.

You may have to remove the metal bracket from the floor. It takes all of 30 seconds, but you'll have plenty of room for a 30 inch tire.
