Expert Reply:

The Swagman XTC2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # S64670 will clear the spare tire with bikes attached. The distance from the center of hitch pin hole to the closest wheel hoop is 8 inches and with your tire being 6 inches that will give you 2 inches to play with.

The Swagman bike rack can carry up to 2 bikes with a weight capacity of 35 pounds per bike. The rack has padded hooks on the ratcheting arms that holds the bikes securely by the frame.

The bike rack has an anti-rattle hitch pin that reduces movement of the rack in the hitch receiver. The rack has is made out of a durable steel construction with a black powder coat that is rust resistant.

The rack can carry a bike with a maximum tire width of 2.5 inches. Fat bike hoops # S64674 (sold separately) will let you carry bikes with 5 inch tires. The Anti-Rattle Hitch Lock and Cable for Swagman Bike Rack # S64030 (sold separately) will help deter theft of your bikes and the rack.
