Starting to wonder about my 35/12.5 spare

Right now as I am waiting for my Teraflex tire carrier to arrive, I am using my original Sahara spare for now.

Looking at my spare in the garage I really see how big the 35x12.5R18 wheel really is.

Besides being around 88-90lbs its just HUGE width wise!! 275/70 seemed ok on back.

Thinking I should have just stuck with 4 wheels and keep the OEM spare.

Cant sell on wheel/tire as who would want and the cost hit. Thought of leaving in garage and rotate in during a 5 wheel rotation and getting and Sahara wheel and mounting a cheap pizza cutter tire on the for spare use.

Going to be fun trying to close the tailgate with that wheel or backing up, LOL.
