When you step up to a wider, taller tire on the Land Rover Defender L663, the factory spare mount runs out of room fast. The Proud Rhino DEF2RTRB offset spare tire carrier fixes that by repositioning the spare so an oversized tire clears the rear wiper arm and sits away from the rear bumper instead of resting against it. It is built to carry the extra weight and diameter that big tire buyers demand while keeping the rear of your Rover looking clean and purposeful.
This carrier now does more than push the tire up and away. It can also offset the spare toward the left side of the Rover, which opens up real clearance on the right side. That extra room on the passenger side is exactly what you want when you run a high lift jack, a storage box, or other tire mounted equipment that would otherwise crowd that corner. You get the flexibility to mount your gear without your spare and your accessories fighting for the same space.
As a Proud Rhino custom part, it is engineered specifically for the L663 platform and made in the USA. If you are running oversized tires and want a mount that handles the diameter, protects the wiper arm and bumper, and still leaves you room for the rest of your recovery kit, this is the setup.

[FAQ]
Why do I need an offset carrier for oversized tires?
A wider, taller tire on the Defender L663 can contact the rear wiper arm and rest against the rear bumper. This carrier repositions the spare so the tire clears both, letting you run the larger diameter without rubbing or damage.
What does the left side offset do?
It shifts the spare toward the left side of the vehicle so you gain clearance on the right side. That is useful when you mount a high lift jack or other tire mounted equipment that needs room on the passenger side.
Is this a Genuine Land Rover part?
No. It is a Proud Rhino custom part engineered for the L663 platform and made in the USA. It is designed as a purpose built upgrade for owners running oversized tires.
