Where do sports keep their spare tire?

[WannaXP8]

I started another thread about where am I gunna put my 31" spare tire, cause I have a hidden hitch, but I was just looking at a sport in my parking lot, and I was like where do they keep the spare, cause there is less room in the back then a 4 door?

Under the rear just like the 4 doors.

Right where it is supposed to be. The largest spare that I was able to fit with my hitch though is a 30x9.5. The '98s have more room than the '95-'97 so you might be able to squeeze a 31" under there. Without my hitch I could probably squeeze a 31" under mine.

I squeezed a 31 under mine, but it barely fits. And this is without a hitch.

I got this cool spare tire carrier from someone on this board. Don't remember who though. It was a guy that does alot of 4 wheeling in the fort myers area of FL. It will hold up to a 32X12.50.

I have a 2000 sport with hidden hitch model 70647. I had to bend the forward spare tire bracket forward slightly about 1/2" to fit the stock spare 255/70R16 back under there. I think I could have bent it another inch with no rear differential interference problems. I know that doesn't answer your question, but that's my experience.
