Where to put spare tire. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm tring to decide where to put my spare tire.. Does someone make a custom Billet Aluminum spare tire bracket/holder. I was also considering puting it on top of a custom speaker box/storage area that covers the entire area behind rear seats like a flat panel flush with the top of box sides. Anyone have any pictures or good ideas?

I like the custom panel in the back, but I'd put it under everything. Are you planning a full size spare or a space saver?

Yes full size spare. When I get 20's it'll be matching spare. Right now just a regular wheel and tire.

Tim did a Blazer a while back where he put 2 small 'aux tanks' in the bed, removed the normal tank, and put the spare under the bed like a pickup's. I thought it looked super clean.
