H2Dude,
Welcome to the forum. My theory on rear tire carriers is simple. The average person may use his spare once over the next 5 years. However the average person opens the rear tailgate daily. So now you have to open the tire carrier everytime you want to go in the back of the truck. That sounds like it could get old fast. If you think you need the spare leave it in the back. If not take the spare out altogether and buy a tire plugging kit (available at any auto parts store). Piece of cake, especially if you have air ride. Plug the tire while its on the vehicle and pump it up with your on board compressor.
