Default Tire transportation 2 door JK

For those of you who have a 2 door JK, how do you guys transport your tires when you go get them changed?

Take the back seat out and try your best to fit them in there, that's how I did it. Move passenger seat as far up as it goes. I stacked three on top of each other the other two I stuffed in.

I bought a Harbor Freight aluminum cargo rack for the hitch for $99.00; best thing I ever did. The next best thing will be a utility trailer purchase in the not too distant future.

I had four 31" in the back (no seat) with a lot of extra room. Three across and one against the gate. I'm sure you could get the spare in the passenger seat or strapped to the top of the others if you need the seat and have the top down.

Leave your spare at home... 4 32s will fit in the back, without the seat. 3-stacked and one straight up. Then the 5th can go on the spare carrier.

Perfect! This worked. I stacked three in the back with the seat up and I put one in the passenger seat. I didn't want to remove the back seat since I only had to drive them a few miles away.

This is what I use for hauling any gear that I cannot fit in the back. Which is not much, as the dog owns the rear cargo area now.
