For an aluminum rooftop carrier that will work great with a spare tire mount I recommend taking a look at the aluminum Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform # RR42115BF instead. This is an extremely versatile rack that will mount to the factory bars on your Subaru Outback and is compatible with a plethora of accessories such as the Spare Tire Carrier # RSWH and the Eye Bolt Kit # RR43178.

I have attached a short video review on this platform below that you can also take a look at.
