About this kit
Heavy-Duty Tire Carrier, fitment-checked
Rough Country 10523 is a heavy-duty tire carrier for the 2007-2017 Jeep Wrangler, built to hold a larger spare tire and wheel while taking load off the tailgate. It requires aftermarket wheels with 5" backspacing, or a wheel spacer of at least 1.25". A 3rd brake light relocation mount is part of the package.
This heavy-duty tire carrier for the 2007-2017 Jeep Wrangler replaces the factory hinges, which are prone to damage, with steel components that carry the weight of an oversized spare and cut down on tailgate stress and rattle. Fitment spans Sport, Sport S, Sahara, Rubicon, X, 70th and 75th Anniversary trims plus the Unlimited versions of those, in both 4WD and RWD. It works alongside factory or aftermarket bumpers. Confirm your wheel backspacing or spacer setup first, then follow the downloadable Rough Country installation guide; the feed lists the job at 1-2 hours with no drilling.
