Could you take a couple of side shots showing how far the spare is from the rear door and the angle if any?
It’s the multi fit.Which UltraSwing model did you get? That looks awesome.

Also maybe a couple of it in the open position with and without the rear door open.
That'll give people a good idea of how this looks mounted.
From what you show, it looks so far!
How are you liking the Victory rack? I'm on the fence on which one to order victory or SSOVictory 4x4 roof rack on

What made you go up from 265/70 to 285/70? Any noticeable difference in ride quality/capability? I have a set of ADVAN RGD2s on the way from showstoppers at the moment. Deciding between 265/70 and 285/70 has been ridiculous. Nice ride man.installed some 285/70s and a Rigd Supply tire carrier.

265/70r17 is enough (.5" nominal clearance difference) and fits in the stock spare location along with other pros. Does it fill the wheel wells quite as much ?

Haha. Love the honesty. I think I’ll go 265/70r17 lol. Thanks brother.265/70r17 is enough (.5" nominal clearance difference) and fits in the stock spare location along with other pros. Does it fill the wheel wells quite as much for the gram? No.
I can't imagine swinging out a spare and then the gate every time I want in the back. How annoying! That half inch just isn't worth it. Plus C loads are relatively common in the 265.Haha. Love the honesty. I think I’ll go 265/70r17 lol. Thanks brother.
You get over swinging out the spare, but one always needs to be aware if there is anything that it can swing into!I can't imagine swinging out a spare and then the gate every time I want in the back. How annoying! That half inch just isn't worth it. Plus C loads are relatively common in the 265.
I get it if you need to run something like a 35" for rock crawling or something but for the majority of people I think it's all about looks over need/function. The difference between a 31.5" tire and a 32.5" tire is so minimal that it's not worth it to me.You get over swinging out the spare, but one always needs to be aware if there is anything that it can swing into!
Since my spare swing-out goes past the width of my rig, if I'm parked next to someone and they want to pull out, I have to swing in my spare a little to give them space. Same if I'm parked close to something, the swing-out may not open all the way.
Just something you get used to and I'd rather have my vehicle built as it is then worry about a spare fitting underneath, but that's me.
My 2018 has 4 nice recovery points. They aren't the best I've seen, but they are plenty good for most tugs unless they get rusty (same as on the FJ). They are much stronger than the typical transport tie down points, which are often just a hole stamped in heavy-ish sheet metal on the frame.On the 460 the stupid factory bumpers and lack of recovery points also mean a bit of trimming for the cbi bumper and replacing the side steps with the 4runner rock rails/sliders.
Where are there 4? I am aware of the two loops on the frame in the front. My problem with them is the location is so low/far back that it makes it pretty hard to attach to and pull without messing up the bumper. I ran a hidden winch mount with recovery points on my 470. Really wish there had been a similar product for my 460.My 2018 has 4 nice recovery points.
