I hadn't even thought about tires beside the motor, I thought it was like the BMW car with two vertical tires. In the Glamis pick above I do now see what looks like the bar that could hold a spare tire but I don't think there is a tire in it, on the left side the white bar goes out past the motor skid plate kind of like it does in the pic from the shop but I don't think there is a tire in it, you see the tire on the ground thru the bar gap. Same vehicle after all and looks like it could run 2 spares, 1 inside and 1 outside!

If you look at the photo from Bryan_D you can see the left side spare under the body
Yes, you can see the red bead loc. That would put it in about the same location as seen in the "spy pic" (along side the motor) and would place it under the body in a similar manor as many of the Dakar cars. Thats why I was thinking three spares. I would like to see how the rear lid works and how they keep the external spare from getting in the way with the whole shebang.

I beleave they are 37 13.50 17's and there is one spare on the inside and one on the rear.And yes the car in the Spy photo is the same as the one with the Hummer Body at Glamis.

That's what I thought, but the guy in the black shirt is standing in the way. I wanted to see how they mounted the "external spare" around the body work. The pic kinda confirms that there are only two spares.
Holy Crap!! Are those two-5 gal gas cans mounted inside the car!! Please don't tell me they have gasoline in them.
