The Rugged Ridge Spartacus HD Tire Carrier Kit is engineered to provide unmatched strength and stability for mounting oversized wheels and tires on Jeep Wrangler models from 2007 through 2018. Designed specifically for off-road enthusiasts who demand durability and reliability, this heavy-duty tire carrier system manages the increased forces and vibrations encountered during extreme terrain driving. Its robust construction ensures your spare tire remains secure while maintaining easy access to the cargo area.
Ideal for Jeep owners upgrading to larger, wider tires, the Spartacus HD Tire Carrier offers enhanced load capacity and longevity compared to factory tailgate hinges. This upgrade not only supports tires up to 37 inches in diameter but also improves the overall functionality and appearance of your Wrangler’s rear end.
Built to withstand the rigors of off-road adventures, the Spartacus HD Tire Carrier Kit includes several advanced features that set it apart:
The Spartacus HD Tire Carrier Kit features a precision die-cast aluminum hinge casting that delivers exceptional strength without the added weight of steel, contributing to improved vehicle handling and fuel efficiency. The one-piece hinge design rigidly connects the wheel mount to a reinforced section of the rear quarter panel, significantly reducing stress on the tailgate.
Forged steel hinge brackets and hardened steel pins provide a durable pivot point that outperforms factory hinges, minimizing wear and extending the lifespan of your tire carrier system. The adjustable wheel mount allows for fine-tuning of tire position, accommodating a wide range of tire sizes and styles while maintaining proper clearance and balance.
Installation of the Rugged Ridge Spartacus HD Tire Carrier Kit is straightforward and requires no drilling, making it a clean upgrade that preserves your Jeep Wrangler’s factory structure. The kit is designed to fit 2007–2011 Jeep Wrangler models with the 3.8L V6 engine, 2012–2018 models with the 3.6L V6 engine, as well as 2018 models equipped with the 2.0L Turbo engine and JK 3.6L V6 variants.
Compatibility with both original equipment and most aftermarket rear bumpers ensures flexibility for various build configurations. The included adjustable third brake light bracket integrates seamlessly, maintaining legal lighting requirements and enhancing rear visibility.
This tire carrier kit is perfect for Jeep Wrangler owners who have upgraded to larger, heavier tires and require a robust mounting solution that can handle the increased load and off-road stresses. It is especially suited for off-road enthusiasts, overlanders, and anyone seeking to enhance the durability and functionality of their Wrangler’s rear tire setup without compromising access or vehicle integrity.

ETA stands for Estimated Time of Arrival. The date shown is calculated using our Available-to-Promise (ATP) system, which tracks real-time supplier commitments to determine when a product is expected to be available for delivery. Specifically, the date is calculated by adding 9 business days from the date a supplier has committed to ship the product, representing a worst-case scenario for when we can expect to receive inventory.
Please note: The ETA is an estimate, not a guarantee. While we work closely with our suppliers to keep dates as accurate as possible, delays due to shipping carriers, weather, customs, or supplier-side issues may occasionally push the actual arrival beyond the date shown. Likewise, inventory may arrive sooner than the ETA in many cases. If you would like to be notified for when this item arrives, sign up for our back in stock notifications!
