Problem #1 - The current spare is much bigger than the stock spare. Therefore it does not sit on the rubber bumpers on the hood....sits outside of them on the paint.
Does anyone have an suggestions on how to get around this problem without drilling new holes in the hood and moving the rubber pads further apart?
Problem #2 - The stock bolts that hold the spare to the hood are now very short due to the wheel being higher up off of the hood. The thread size is obviously something you can't find at the local hardware store.
Anyone using another method to this?
I'm just curious how those with bigger wheel sizes have gone around this problem. Pictures would be a huge help!
thanks
