agree the carrier places the tyre high up to so that it can swing down to the ground, with all the pivot points it may be a rattler!
I think i like it more for the Rear Winch not many bars have em.

Yeah I ordered a rear bar with tyre carrier from them yesterday. Have been looking at bar options for over a week trying to work out the best way to go.

Apparently this will be the first production bar they're making. They made the prototype that you see on their website, but nothing production yet.

around 4 week wait.

did you notice much sag in the springs with the new bar, I assume it has a swing away as well

Cheers

Here's a pic of the Kaymar on my Jeep



My only negative feedback, which I rang Kaymar and told, is that the number plate mount does not fit with that alloy wheel. They advised me that the carrier is designed to fit the factory alloy wheel. I asked them why I'd be buying such an expensive carrier if I was running the factory wheels and tyres but they had no answer.

Overall the quality of the bar is excellent though.
