deflated i think is the only way with that size to get it "up the back" so to speak

It's about 2" (depending on the tire) bigger than standard. It's also a bit wider. 265/60/18 goes in with no issues but I believe the taller "65" needs to be deflated a decent amount.

Yeah, fouls going up, and with the supporting braces on the tow bar there is very little manipulation room, might try the deflation route later today and see if that helps, good excuse to buy a mobile compressor to pop onboard if it works! Laughing
