Max. Spare Tire Size??
 

Anybody happen to know what the maximum spare tire size is that will fit in the interior spare tire well? Right know I'm planning on running 285/75x16 BFG Muds on my 72 4x4 Burb,....trying to figure out if i'll be able to carry a full size spare.

Thanks!

I know on my K5 that 33's are the biggest size tire I can use in the interior spare mount and have it fit correctly.

I have a suburban and have yet to try a large size in it but I am sure someone else will chime in.

Did you ever figure this out? I’m wondering the same

Yeah, not going to fit correctly. Not fitting in my 91 either. New bumper with an exterior rack and a swing out for me. 285s are pretty large. Plus I'd rather be standing straight up than hunched over wrestling that 65-75 pound tire with my bad back.

I keep a 225/75/15 in my stock interior spare tire well. Fits snug.

A 225/95x16 is the same overall height as the 285/75x16. If the width is the problem it may work.
