Can a 32 Inch Spare Tire Fit with Curt Trailer Hitch 13157 Installed on a 2000 Toyota 4Runner
Question:
I am looking for a hitch that will allow for a larger tire to be stowed below the car. Do you know if a 265/75/16 or 32inch tire will fit with this hitch?

Expert Reply:
There could possibly be some interference with a 32 inch tire and a hitch such as # 13157 on a 2000 Toyota 4Runner. The hitches aren't tested with larger than stock tires though so it's hard to say for sure. The worse case scenario is that the mount for the spare tire would have to be moved forward a little on the vehicle. At the very least, if there is interference, you would have to guide down and up by pushing it forward on the vehicle while lowering or raising it at the same time.
