Will a 20" tire be to heavy to go on a spare tire rack for a 2012 conversion van?

Don't think the weight would be an issue as the carrier is quite sturdy; but the frame upon which it is mounted. And the lug pattern - mine was a 6 lug, 15" wheel and did not fit.

Id not think you would have any trouble mounting a 20" tire and wheel. The mount is made from heavy duty steel.

Well I have a 15 inch on mine, so I really don't know if a 20 inch would work. Now that being said, tire carrier seems to be really strong. I would maybe look it up on line and see, I hate to say yes and have it rip the thing off... Michael

i don't know the carrier looks like it's strong but i think where you mount the carrier is what counts

yes, this will function as a back break and fit 20" wheels -in most cases-, the mounting bolt can be adapted by use of a spacer, again -In most cases- but there are exceptions to everything. good luck.

Yes it will! And yes you will need a thinner tire, size is 205 40 17 I believe off the top of my head

I suspect the actual rack frame may hold that amount of weight but the loop frames where the tires sit are not that sturdy so I would be reluctant to carry that much especially as the rack will bounce a bit while driving. I think there are other options. Good luck.

Tire width is not an issue. The rack is adjustable for height and on the highest setting will be just over 15.5" from the center of the axle to the bottom of the rack. Hope this helps

Don't know if this kit will work on the heavier vehicle and bigger tire than bicycle. I know this kit works fine for bike. Check with mfg.

I have a jeep wrangler it works OK for me but I don't have a big spare tire.I mounted some aluminum plates for the bike tires to set on so they didn't slide off of the square tubing. Good luck.

Hello, thank you for your email, I will need the year of the Tundra to be 100% correct. Now I did my research and on Tundra Years 00-06 on 20" wheels tire size will be 275/45R20 and for years 07-12 you can go either 275/55R20 or 285/50R20 no problem. Thank you Onlinetires.com Customer Service

You could go a bit higher, maybe 65lbs or so, but not much more than that. It is not a real road tire so it will feel a bit sluggish.

I think you can probably make it work. The rack is wide, and the height is easily adjusted, so I don't think fat tires would be a problem. The front stays swivel and extend where they connect to the rack, so you have a lot of options there even without bending anything. If you want to connect directly to the hub, I think you could do it by replacing the lower hardware with some kind of kludge (the standard hardware is narrower than the axle, so I'm skeptical about drilling it out).

Not sure if you have the correct size, but I purchased the correct size for my van and I could not get them on the tire correctly. I needed the strength of a gorilla.

It should not be a problem - there is plenty of slack in the straps, and the aluminum channel will be wide enough to accommodate.At the very most you may need to partially deflate the tires.

the fat tire won't be a problem. to see if it will fit on any bike, take a look at your rear fork. just above or to the side of the slot where the rear axle mounts, you need to have a tapped hole (most bikes have 2 holes, both are tapped the same). that is the primary mounting support, if you have that set up then you are good to go. no, this carrier is not flimsy, it will easily and safely support its rated load.

The 6400 has the, Trailer Adaptor Kit (TK 3000) that allows you to place the wheel chock on a trailer. Yes it will support the fatter tire, you can adjust the space and hight for the specific tire. Just follow the manufactures instructions.

It should not, no. However, you may wish to look at the Freedom Superclamp, that rack only touches the tires

Attn Solo,I think the rack will miss the spare tyre however I think you will not get a bike in the carrier closiet to the back of the car.
