Default Spare tire mounting to roof rails

I have a 91 cherokee with 31x10.50 tires. I wanted to use the roof rack rails that come with the jeep to strap my spare tire to it. Anyone else done it? does it work well? any input would be appreciated. Thanks

several have done this! you need to make sure it is mounted on there nice and tight thought. I would also suggest that you get maybe another rail or two just to be safe
