Default Rear bumper/tire carrier recommendations
I have around $1600 to spend on a rear bumper/tire carrier. What is well made, solid (no rattling) and fits well?
I have a 2013 JK w/35" Duratracs.

Thanks!

JCR Offroad. They have 2 different carriers that fit 2-3 different bumper options.

AEV - stout, no rattles, and looks great. Has a bunch of accessories that may be useful as well including a 10 gallon fuel caddy and a high lift mount.

Poison Spyder Rock Brawler II. Hands down best choice. My opinion anyway!

Thanks all!
I am impressed with Mickey Thompson Metal series rear bumper with tire carrier. Love the integrated rock lights. Anyone have experience with it?

Bought Metalcloak this spring and love it. Very solid with smooth feel. Keeps my spare lower for better view during daily driving...
