Either one is fine to do. With the Fulton Hi-Mount Spare Tire Carrier part # FSTC1000301 you are not going to be adding a great deal of width to your trailer so the difference is minimum.
Giving you my opinion since there is no rule I would Choose the side I access less which for me would be the passenger's side. I find myself hopping out of the driver's seat and hopping into the trailer from that side so I would want to have it on passenger's side to keep that area open for access.
