Nice job wvtradbow ... and I appreciate the comments re my trailer build.
Regarding a swing out spare tire carrier, I'd be concerned about hanging that much weight off the back end of your trailer. I think your axle is far enough back that it won't be a problem but it's hard to tell from your pics. A lot depends on what you plan to add to the tongue area (weight wise) and how you plan to load the trailer. I opted for wheels and tires that match my tow vehicles (Jeep MOAB wheels with 245/75R/16's) and basically eliminated the problem.
As for a plain looking tailgate, I have a bike rack as one option (post #2 - http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/148123-PCO6-s-Trailer-Build ). I also plan to add some "stickers". (lol)
I like your idea of the "bleacher" floors.
