Question:

2018 Miata MX 5 Grand Touring, You list a Curt class 1 for my Miata, Item # C11435. Do you have a tire carrier that will fit the 1-1/4 Inch Hitch, The car does not have a spare tire and Ive already had to buy a very expensive tire on the road, it would just be used for long trips, not for daily driving.

Expert Reply:

There is not a hitch mounted spare tire carrier for your MX-5 compatible with the Curt trailer hitch # C11435 but I do have an alternative solution for you. You can use a compatible cargo carrier and we have the following to choose from:

17x46 Curt Cargo Carrier # C18145
19x47 Curt Cargo Carrier # C18110
20x47 Reese Cargo Carrier # 63155

The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11435 is the correct hitch fit for your 2018 Mazda Miata MX-5. You will also need the Curt Cam Buckle Stabilizing Strap # 18050 for any accessories according to the manufacturers warranty.

Then you can use the Buyers Products Spare Tire Carrier # 3375201010 or a basic locking carrier like # FETCHL0700.
