Optional trailer accessory

Have wanted to buy one of these for a long time and am glad I did. Easy to install and better than lugging a spare around in the truck all the time. Easy installation, one person, took 5 minutes. The pictures in the instructions were clear and easy to understand. I didn't need the locking mechanism but used it as I had an extra lock. Ultimately, if someone wants to take it, it won't be difficult anyway, but it might hold it back a little πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ I laid mine flat instead of on its side out of…

Pros
  • . Product includes FREE mounting tabs/brackets. Note: The lock is not included. 1 year limited warranty. Manufacturer parts warranty

Great spare wheel mount.

I really like the holder. I've used it on a HF trailer with 12" tires/wheels and 5 on a 4.5" lug pattern. The mount is perfect for this bar pattern.

Pros
  • The Tow Tuff has a 100 pound load capacity to ensure you can handle this product for a variety of tire needs!
Cons
  • Not fashionable

I decided to…

Pros
  • Constructed from welded heavy duty powder coated steel, this tire carrier is strong and durable. Installation is quick and easy thanks to the bolt on design and the zinc plated mounting hardware included
Cons
  • Hard to tell
