Multi-Spare (frankensteining it)
So I have a spare mounted under my blazer, its a 4 door....
Now I have been looking at some ideas about getting a spare tire rack off a two door... there is a complete one here at the local pull and save...
Now, what about the interior mounted spares? I have not found too much on those just yet....
What would you guys think of a blazer with an undermounted + back door mounted spare? Overkill? or just b. a.

Well by looking at it....
1. undermounted
2. back hatch....
3. Back door
4. Roof rack....
That means I could potentially run a set of 32's and then when wanting to be streetable switch back on the way to the highway.... to the stocks...

x2 on roof rack spare
then slap a spare on the front of the brush guard old farm truck style, and snag that spare mount out of a late 1st gen/Early 2 gen for the win!
Mudding, hang on (45 minutes later) lets roll! what's that? de-icer all over the road? *45 mins later* good thing i carry 4 GD spares! lets roll!
Saddly you will look semi-retarded, but F that, you can drive through a lava flow, re-mount new tires, and keep trucking! SUCK IT lava victims!

the blind stop is actually quite manageable and not much worse than a lot of new Sedans (anyone been in a new G6 
)
the real problem lies in the disaster that goes into fabricating mounting points into the body of a 4 door which in not reinforced the same as the 2 dr...

True, the blind spot isn't really that inconvienient. It always bothered me tho that on the two-doors they put a rear wiper that barely reaches beyond the spare tire diameter.
