The Thule Hitching Post Pro # TH934XTR should fit the bill to clear the spare tire on your 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon. I say "should" because more times than not this will fit, however since Jeep owners like to modify their rides you will want to take a quick measurement just to make sure.

At long as the distance from the center of your hitch pin hole to the outermost part of your spare isn't 13-1/2" or more then this will fit great! I have attached a review video of this on a 2014 Wrangler for you to check out.

That's a little more of a difficult situation as most 4-bike platform racks don't have extremely long shanks as that would just make the bikes sit further form the vehicle, but we do have the top of the line Kuat NV 2.0 Base # BA22B-BA02B in conjunction with the Kuat Pivot 2 # PVP20B. This gives you a really clean looking setup that won't make contact with your bike frames, plus you have the ability to swing your bike rack (loaded or empty) away to gain complete access to the rear hatch area.
