How big of a spare fits?

I havent got a spare for the Burb yet, I wanted to see if any of you tried fitting larger size spares in the original spare cutout. I'm thinking I'll probably have to go with a 8'' wheel, I'd like to put a 33'' tire for the spare so I dont lean too much when/if the spare is on. I have 35'' bfg's on the Burb now. Let me know if you have already been down this road, if you're not too tired
