Could Thule Hitching Post Pro # TH934XTR Fit 2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
Question:
I wanted to see what the clearance was for the TH934XTR bike rack, I have a 2017 jeep wrangler but I am concerned about the clearance for the back tire. The spare tire is 12inch wide vs. the 9inch standard. Plus I need a rack fro 3+ bikes.

You'll need to take one measurement to determine if the Thule Hitching Post Pro part # TH934XTR will fit your 2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. Measure from the center of your hitch pin hole out to the furthest point out on your spare tire. If that distance is less than 13-1/2 inches this rack will clear it and fit well.
I attached a picture and demo video for this rack on similar Wranglers as your 2017 Wrangler Unlimited for you to check out as well.
If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
