Spare Tire Mount for Jeep Wrangler JK – Steel Reinforcement for the AEV Style Bumper

The stock tailgate hinge on a JK Wrangler was never designed to carry a bigger, heavier spare tire — fit wider off-road tires or a steel wheel instead of the factory alloy, and the tailgate eventually starts to sag, with play developing in the hinges. The NOM-BP012 mount transfers that load onto the bumper's steel structure instead of the factory hinge.

This isn't a universal tire bracket — it's part of the AEV Style bumper system, engineered to work with one specific rear bumper in that line: NOM-BP011.

Material Steel

Fitment Jeep Wrangler JK 2007-2017

• Takes the weight off the tailgate hinges, so the door doesn't sag over time under a heavy tire.
• Comes with every mounting component you need — no hunting for extra bolts or brackets.

Who it's for / use case: Built for JK owners who already run, or are about to install, the AEV Style rear bumper NOM-BP011 and want to safely bolt on a larger off-road tire or a steel-wheel spare that's heavier than the factory setup.
