Will the rack clear a rear spare tire?

Will the rack clear a rear spare tire?

UPDATED MAY 2025

Everyone has a different model and spare tire size, but typically, no, our rack is not designed to go on a vehicle with a rear spare tire.

Some customers use an extender with the 2″ version of the rack to push everything further away. This is an option if you aren’t carrying too much weight. Typically, an extender reduces the recommended weight by about 50%.

We do not make an extender and our warranty does not cover usage of the rack with third-party extenders, adapters, or swing-away arms. This is because we don’t know the integrity of third-party products and we haven’t tested our rack with any of them.

Another idea is to use the rack with your spare tire and no extender.  How? By removing a pedal from the bike closest to the spare, essentially putting the bike right up against the spare tire. We saw a jeep in Utah and took pictures of this idea. We can’t guarantee that it will work with your vehicle, but looking at our dimensions FAQ might help.
