Post subject:  Would it hold the new spare

I bought 4 245-75 tires on a procomp 7032 16x8 wheels (had to get a 2' spacer lift to prevent rubbing) but I wanted to buy the same for my spare. Will the bigger tire/wheel fit the spare mount or do need to relocate it? or just stay with the stock wheel and old spare?

Should fit with no problems I have had 16X8 inch Moabs with 245-75s hanging on mine for quite a while

I have 16x8 Moab with 265/75-16 HEAVY Load D Treadwright Guard Dog on mine. No problems. The spare mount is surprisingly strong. Lots of bracing inside that rear gate.

I have 8069 Procomps 16 x 8 with 4" back spacing and 245x75x16 MTR's and mine fits so I am sure yours would also. And it won't look cheezy with the stock spare. :)

thanks for the info, got them order but since the wheel is backordered will have to wait a spell. But it would look better and perform safer if needed.
