People running larger tires, do you have a larger spare tire?

I carry a full size spare (37`s) taking up all of my bed space was not an option for me, I`m running a Riged swing out spare tire carrier, not cheap but worth keeping the full use of my bed..
google it...

"Installed onboard air", as in you have an actual compressor in the truck, or you have some sort of active air management system like the military vehicles use?

I installed the ARB twin compressor and a 2 gal air tank under my hood. Power comes from the RAM auxiliary switch bank. There's a second on/off ARB switch under the hood. I routed the air line to the underside of the truck bed where I mounted an air chuck. With the 20'? ARB hose and gauge kit I can reach all four tires and my rear airbags.

I just aired up today (65/55psi) while leaving backcountry Death Valley along with my friend's rig when his Viair compressor failed. It seemed to take a bit longer at 7600' to fill up the tires.

Have a 35x12.50 fully aired up under the truck but also carry a plug kit just in case with a small compressor. Does take a little wiggling to get it in and have a strap across it for additional support of the added weight.
