From my understanding it can be made to order for a wider tire.

The question is : will your door hinges handle that weight ?

I am still hesitating here.

That is another issue. I know people who use the mount and I also have run 32" tires on steel wheels with no problems on the back door. But I would rather carry my jack on my ARB bumper or roof rack. I don't think a 60" Hi-Lift fits very well on the spare and IMHO a 48" Hi-Lift isn't long enough.

I have it and I had to weld the two parts together (the part held by the pin). It rattled like an old hillbilly playing the washboard. I only put it on when going off road so it won't tweak the hinge. I hold my spare on with real lugs and I put the jack bracket on with the spare half size nuts. It's another poorly thought out $orry Gard item.
