Will a JK wheel fit in the Comanche spare location?

[dasbulliwagen]

I have JK takeoffs on my truck but have yet to try to put the spare up under the bed. Will the OEM wheel holder on the end of the cable fit through the hub hole on a JK wheel? I'm just wondering if anyone has tried it before I go and take it down.

Can't say for sure, but my thinking is that since the JK wheels fit your hubs the holes should be the same size and the wheel holder should fit.

Yes they will fit but it takes a little bit of modification to make them fit. I run the stock 17" JK wheels and I needed to trim the rear sheetmetal on the bed, relocate the prop valve mounting point, and cut the exhaust where it goes over the axle. Now it looks just like factory though.

What size tire is that? When I was running on 31x10.50-15s I had a 31x10.50 spare under my SWB with no mods needed.

Mine are 255/75R17 which should equal to about 32" in diameter. Everything was close to clearing but just those few mods made it clear with plenty of room.
