I'm thinking of putting the spare tire up on a roof rack. Is this better than the rear from those of you that have done both?

Thank you for the responses. I'm tired of the tire in the rear being that I do take it in the rear alot!! Can't wait for the comments on that one!!
I'll keep in mind the clearance issue although it seems to me that if I only put it on top when necessary, it shouldn't be an issue.
Any top racks that come highly recommended for both tire and additional stuff??

Having the rear tire carrier save my life in a auto accident.
I was hit right in the ass end of the Hummer by a drunk driver at 60 + MPH. I was stop at a red light.
If it was not for the tire carrier being on the ass of the Hummer I would be Dead.

The rear carrier is a bit of a pain but my garage and the parking garage at work are to low for a roof mount. Keep that in mind.

I have the rear mount and love it. It really comes down to how much you take it in the rear. If it’s an every day occurrence than you may want it up top. I also like the look with it on the back.
So at this point everyone reading this is thinking it, so I will ask. The question is, Just how often do you take it in rear? |

Mine's in the back. But it does make for one heck of a blind spot behind my head. Which isn't a very good thing. I'd rather have the blind spot though than the mount on the outside. It's just too much a pain in the arse.

Could you please post a close up picture of your jack mount? I'm trying to figure out how to mount my jack in the same locationa and I'd love to see how you did it.
Thanks!
(Looks great!)
