I recently purchased 285/75/16 BFG AT. When my wife was at Discount Tire having them installed the rep told her they could not put on a spare because "there is not enough room" with the hitch/rec'v on. Anyone out there disagree or do I need to rush out now and buy a Slee rear bumper with swingout.....?

Thanks
 
Even if it fits, rush out and get that Slee.
 
285/75/16 should fit just fine w/ the factory receiver. I've got a set of Revos - no problem.

IIRC you should be able to fit 295s in as well, though you may have to turn the bar in the back upside down.

Tell DT to . . .
 
Is the ball mount installed?
 
My 285s fit fine.
 
Sounds like great opportunity to buy the Slee, but I have 295 Nitto TG's and it fits fine
 
Mine fit.
 
285/75/16 Goodyear DuraTrac fits just fine. I'm sure the BFG AT will too.

After.webp
 
My brand spanking new 295/75/16 BFG ATs fit there just fine.
