Trying one sounds like a good plan. I’ve read as well about some needing to remove that bracket, but mine fit without removal. Tight, but fits fine. 2010LC for reference, in case the bracket situation might have changed in later years.I had asked that question before the install. I was told that the 285/70/R18 wouldn't fit in the spare location. I've read here a few success stories, but no detailed info on removing a bracket that could block the tire from tucking fully underneath the chassis. What I need to do (which I've not had time to do yet) is take down the current spare, take off a wheel and just try it. There's a blizzard happening right now, so I doubt I'll get the chance this weekend. Maybe next weekend. I'll also need the torque spec on the wheels.
