TJM rear tire carrier, any opinions?

I'm interested in getting a tire carrier for my Jeep. I'd like it to look professional or somewhat stock so the options I'm considering are the DetoursUSA tailbone or the TJM bumper and carrier from Rusty's offroad.

For some reason I can't seem to find anyone online that has the TJM bumper for the cherokee. The only pic I've found is the stock photo:

I'll be mounting a rubicon moab 15x8" wheel with either a 245/75/16 or 265/75/16 tire.

Any thoughts? I have no experience with either Detours or TJM, but don't really want a hardcore setup . My rig currently looks stock except for a small lift.

Thanks,
T

TJM is a well-respected manufacturer....like ARB. It should handle a small tire like that with no problem.

Tail Bones have been around a while. Their reputation is good as well.

I recently purchased a Tailbone from Detours. I haven't installed it yet as I am out of the country right now but Mark from Detours was really helpful. I suggest calling them directly and speaking with him instead of going through the website. It took me almost 2 months to get mine though due to a back log of orders. I have heard nothing but good reports about them though.
