Spare Tire Carrier

I have a 2020 JLUR;

I'm currently running the stock 33's but will go to 35's once these have worn down.
I will never go taller than 35's.

Will the stock carrier hold the 35's without any problem?
Or should I upgrade it?

I am asking because my tailgate was wrecked in a parking lot accident and insurance is replacing with whole new one.
This would be a good time to upgrade if it Ould be needed to handle the 35's.

Thanks in Advance-

Yes it will work fine. As long as the fire clears the bumper and you may need spacers or some washers on the lugs because of a wider tire.

We're running 35s on our JL Sport and the bottom of the spare barely touches the bumper when closing the tail gate (so we just have to shut it hard). One thing though is that if you go with aftermarket rims, your rubber spacers on the tailgate will no longer press against the spare tire so you will have to lengthen those.
