Tow trust tow bar in combination with bigger spare wheels

HI All,

Anyone having experience with a tow trus tow bar in combination with a bigger than original spare wheel?

I have BFGoodricht AT ko in 265/70R17. With the original detachable tow bar it is just going in, with some difficulty. Now I would want to know if mounting the Tow Trust bar would make it more difficult or even impossible to fit the tyre.

If you carry a compressor for the tyres in the car, you could let some air out of the spare so it fits?

Hi, that is already the case;) I would just like to know if the tow trust bar isn't further towards the tyre.

Just replaced a few parking sensors so had to drop the bumper looking at the full size wheel I’d say you have at max 1” extra radius at a push 31” maximum diameter and that is tight Range Rover Westminster 4.4 TDV8 what a car
