I used the grommet in the firewall to run the coax from my roof rack antenna mount. I used the in cab pigtail in the drivers side footwell to power the box. I have it mounted underneath the passenger side seat with a midland magnetic mount for the mic.

I’m running 275/70R18 Maxxis Razr ATs with the same size spare no issues at all. Even off-road I didn’t have any rubbing at all. I believe you could fit a 285/70R18 spare underneath and if it’s too tight just take some air out. Better to have a “soft” spare than no spare or a mismatched size
