Hey Mike, hold off on that mount for a bit.

I got to looking at my spare and forgot that there is an extra 3 or so inches of room to play with
due to the offset of the wheel. It sticks a LOT further out on the mount that the stock wheel and
tire do....

Let me get you a couple of pics and some measurements.

What is the size and offset of your wheels if you don't mind me asking?

here are some updated pics of the bracket.it is in its crude form,it will look much better when done.its just a little difficult to make it so you basically hide all the bracketry,but i will have to have 2 outer braces so that will be shown....soryy i had to edit some pics due to my fridgerator art
