if we are dealing with a pulsar, i would say maybe on the roof, or if you take the boot lid off the car it should stick out of there nicely, maybe some tie downs.

That pretty poor isnt it. You would like to think that the rear door desighed by Nissan should be able to support a 33 inch wheel and tyre considering that the stock size tyre is 32 inch!!

Sometimes I think the people who design rear doors think it will be carrying no weight at all, and we'll all just go out and get after market brackets and rear bars to take the weight.

why not? they are designed to be used as they come out of the showroom. After that, its not Nissans problem. they have no idea what of the 10 trillion seperate configurations people could run.
