That’s a tuff order...
Problem is even if it did fit.. that’s a lot of weight on that little tire winch that holds the spare in place. I would be more worried about it failing and dropping the tire.

Any issues with heat from the exhaust damaging the tire, having a large tire mounted underbody.

It seems like it would be very close to the exhaust pipe

I've had a 35x12.5x17 under mine for a couple of years now and no issues. Tire is still snug tight underneath. Just had to jam it past the tow package underneath. No issue with exhaust either.
