Tire Carrier Question
For those of you with the tub mounted or tailgate mounted or bumper mounted tire carriers, if you have a hardtop, does the window clear the tire? I have a 30.5 inch tire on my stock carrier right now and it's close to hitting the hardtop window.
I'm in the process of moving up to 33's and am worried about interference.

I have the Rock Hard 4x4 Tire Carrier bumper, and when it's swung out i can open my hard top window without issue. There's no problem at all with both closed.

It will depend on tire size and backspacing of rim.Most bumper carriers can be adjusted for tire and rim size.I have 35' with 3.75 backspacing on 15x8"wheels and there's no problem at all with rear glass.

Which tire carriers do you have? Do you have any pics? What about people with the tailgate mounts?

I have both the WARN and Body Armor and have no problems with either one with my 33's hanging on them.
