I''ve never used our draftmaster with a spare tire like that. But I have used it on two different SUV's with both the standard receiver connection arm and the extended connection arm.

Just on a regular SUV, it works better(more door clearance) with the extended arm.

I would bet you need at least the extended connection arm.

You can measure and see where the rack would end up. Just eyeballing, I'm betting it will clear the spare with the extended connection arm.

ATOC is just a two man show I believe. The guy who owns it is very helpful, so I'd give him a call

If the extended arm (which adds 7.5") isn't long enough, I'm pretty sure he can fabricate a longer one for you.
