Good look at a 2007 Hummer H3 roof kayak and rear bike rack using the Thule 430 Tracker II base rack with TK12 Tracker Kit, the Thule 873XT wind fairing/noise deflector, and the Thule 881 Top Deck kayak carrier. Mounted to the Hummer H3 spare tire is the Thule 963XT Spare Me spare tire bike rack.
This Hummer H3 roof kayak rack and spare tire mounted bike rack set up is looking fine using exclusively Thule racks. Starting with the roof, we have the Thule 430 Tracker II base rack system with the TK12 Tracker Kit and LB 58 Loadbars. For kayak transport, the Thule 881 Top Deck kayak carrier is doing its thing. Mounted to the spare tire is the Thule 963XT spare tire bike rack for two bikes. Security is ensured with the Thule 544 lock pack for the 430 Tracker II base system and the Thule 538 locking cable for the bikes. The 963XT Thule Spare Me comes with a locking knob to prevent unwanted removal of the rack from the spare tire.

Thule Racks has recently improved on the already ultra-popular and market leading Thule 963 Spare Me. Now available is the all-new Thule 963XT Spare Me spare tire mount bike rack, which now includes a redesigned adapter mounting plate to fit an even wider range of cars with rear mounted spare wheels. Now even fits the Toyota RAV4 spare tire and Toyota FJ Cruiser spare tire. Also included are the Thule 955 No-Sway Cages (formerly only available as an additional accessory upgrade), which eliminate bicycle swing and prevent bike to bike contact and bike to car contact. Other included features are a lock & key to lock the rack to the vehicle, folding bike arms and the premium Thule T3 Cradles. If you want to carry a couple bikes and your car has a rear mounted spare tire, you’ll definitely want to check out the Thule 963XT Spare Me bike rack.
