Always great products and service from trailer. I haven’t installed spare tire holder but it looks good. I’ll be buying a spare tire and wheel soon to attach to this spare holder for my trailer.

Best spare lock I’ve found, all you do is drill a 9/16” hole through your backing plate and insert either end of the lock and use the key to screw it till tight and remove the key. The lock screws into itself...GENIUS! Spare tire and wheel is now safe!

Love that I have it keyed to match my other trailer locks. Its a little bit of extra work to screw it on and off versus a traditional style lock, but its worth it. I highly recommend it.

Seems to be well made and to work well. Gives me confidence that my spare will be removed only by me using the key. eTrailer product information, packaging and tracking are outstanding.

The products worked as well as we expected from talking with etrailer employees and looking online. It was easy to install. We wanted to be able to have a spare tire carrier utilizing the two inch receiver hitch and with the extra two inch receiver we can carry our bicycles or pull our boat or 4-wheelers. I would recommend this product for this type of purpose.

The locks I purchased were to lock the top of a customized aluminum trailer top for a cross country camping trip. The locks were perfect - I did my research and you folks followed thru on technical advice & the order, etc. I would like to able to provide extended review, however due to the fact that my camping equipment (sleeping bag/tent, etc) were rated/designed for above 40 degree temp, I had to turn back in Montana (Yellowstone) as the temp was 25-28 degrees & and I froze during the 1st night. Envision making an espresso on my trailer (outside) in 25 degree temp. Not good; so I returned immediately to the Oregon coast. But your locks were terrific!!!!!!!!!!

The spare tire lock works great with my Roadmaster spare tire mount. I did have my service guys drill a third hole for it, have the 2 to mount the tire and one to lock it.I am very happy with the product and service i get from Etrailer.Everything I have ordered from them were top quality and worked as advertised. I have a even had my service techs order things from etrailer to be installed on my class Thor. I will use them again

Good, solid lock. To me, the best thing about it is the ability to have it keyed like with other trailer locks. I do wish the price was more in line with their hitch/receiver locks I also bought.

Bought several of these, keyed alike, plus locking wheel chocks, after a druggie stole my trailers. Bought another because these are rock solid deterrents. Renders wheel unusable so a thief less able to sell. Be sure to rinse if salt environment.

After trying a couple locks with dissatisfaction, I am very happy that I purchased this lock as it works beautifully on the spare tire of my 2014 FJ Cruiser. I can now drive with peace of mind that my nice looking alloy wheel uncovered by the ugly spare cover is secure!

Not really a problem with the product but design does not work for the spare mount on my boat trailer even though this product was recommended for trailers vs. rear car mount (like a Jeep).I will have to return.

I was looking for a way to secure the spare tire on my boat trailer and this is the best solution I've found thus far. It seems to be very sturdy, secure and easy to use. Ordering was simple and the delivery time was satisfactory. I would definitely recommend this product and seller. THANK YOU!

Ask the Experts about this etrailer Spare Tire Locks
- Will the etrailer.com Spare Tire Lock Work On the Spare Wheel on a 2009 Jeep Wrangler SaharaAs long as there is an open lug bolt opening in the wheel that has 3/4 inches of clearance behind it on your 2009 Jeep Wrangler Sahara rear mounted spare wheel you will be able to use the Spare Tire Lock, item # e98892. I have added a photo showing how the lock is attached and the distance from the back of the wheel to the farthest part of the lock. If the wheel mounting bracket at the back of the Jeep covers all of the bolt holes the lock will not work.

- Trailer Hitch Lock for 2006 Toyota 4Runner with 2-9/16 Inch Outside Receiver WidthConsidering that the inside span of hitch lock # e98892 is exactly the same (2-9/16") as the width of the outside of the hitch receiver on your 2006 Toyota 4Runner I recommend looking at a different lock with a slightly wider span. For that I recommend Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock - Flush Design for 2" Trailer Hitches Item # e98880. It has a span of 2-5/8 inches which will provide 1/16 inch of clearance! I have linked a video review of this lock for you.
view full answer... - How Does the etrailer.com Spare Tire Lock Act as an Anti-Theft DeviceBasically what the etrailer.com Spare Tire Lock # e98892 does is act as a lug nut that secures the wheel to the trailer so that if someone were to try and remove the wheel they'd not be able to loosen the lock unless they had the key. Check out the review video I attached for this lock I attached to this page as well.
view full answer... - Spare Tire Lock for 2013 Jeep WranglerIf your spare tire has at least 3/4 inches of clearance behind it, and you have an available lug opening that passes through the carrier on the vehicle, the etrailer.com lock # e98892 would be a great choice that would work very well for you. I've linked to a product demonstration video.

- Can etrailer.com Spare Tire Lock Be Ordered in Multiples That Are Keyed AlikeThe etrailer.com Spare Tire Lock, part # e98892, can be ordered in multiples that are keyed alike. There is a modest up-charge for this feature. When placing your order you can select the Keyed Alike option in the drop-down menu box. This lock is adjustable to fit rims between 1/4-inch and 7/8-inch thickness.
view full answer... - Trailer Spare Tire Lock That Threads TogetherI believe we have what you are looking for with the etrailer Spare Tire Lock # e98892. This locks the lug bolt opening and this is a 2-piece lock that threads together, as you can see in the linked installation video. This lock will work so long as your rim has a thickness between 1/4" and 7/8".

view full answer... - Will the etrailer Spare Tire Lock Fit on Wheels of a 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited RubiconThe etrailer Spare Tire Lock # e98892 is designed to fit on wheels that are between 1/4" - 7/8" thick; I don't know for sure how thick your Rubicon wheels are but in most cases this lock should work just fine. I would pull one of the lugs off the spare tire carrier and just take a quick measurement to make sure the metal is not thicker than 7/8" though; that's really the only way of knowing for sure as I'm not seeing any information on the thickness of the wheels available in my resources. I've...
view full answer... - Hitch Lock Recommendation for 2 inch Curt Trailer HitchThe etrailer Spare Tire Lock part # e98892 that you referenced can lock a spare tire to it's mount but I can't guarantee it would lock your spare tire rack to your spare. For a standard hitch lock that would work great on a Curt 2 inch hitch the # e98882 would be a great option. This lock is stainless steel too so it will resist corrosion.
view full answer... - Where is Rim Thickness Measured For etrailer Spare Tire Lock e98892That's a really good question, and what you want to measure is the thickness of the rim at the bolt hole, including the mounting plate, for the etrailer Spare Tire Lock for 1/4" to 7/8" Thick Rims # e98892. So long as it is in between that wide variance of 1/4 inch to 7/8 inch then you can use this lock to secure your spare tire. I have added a link below to a video review for you to check out as well of the etrailer Spare Tire Lock # e98892.
view full answer... - Could Locking Lug Nut be Used to Lock Wheel to etrailer Spare Tire Carrier # e99045The bolts that come with the etrailer Spare Tire Carrier for Trailer with Angle-Iron Railing # e99045 are M12 size bolts which you could use a locking lug nut designed for that size with. Since that size is pretty rare a better option might be the part # e98892.
view full answer... - Recommended Spare Tire Carrier For Class C MotorhomeWe don't carry a bumper mounted spare tire carrier capable of the weight of a Class C Motorhome spare tire, however, we do have a hitch mounted option. The Roadmaster Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier w/ 2" Receiver Opening # RM-195225 is an ideal fit for your application. It does require a 2 inch hitch receiver, but it gives you a functional way for one person to load and unload a large spare safely. You may want to consider an anti-rattle like the Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 2" Trailer...
view full answer... - Recommended Spare Tire Hitch Mount And Locks For 2000 Ford F-550The Front Mounted Trailer Hitch Universal Spare Tire Carrier # 6715 will for on your truck as long as it is within the 100 lb weight capacity limit. Another option for your 2000 Ford F-550 is the Curt Trailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier # C31006 which doesn't have a capacity rated limit. I recommend using a hitch receiver lock like # e98880 to secure your mount and a spare tire lock like # e98892 to secure your spare and deter theft.

- Spare Tire Carrier Mounted on Yakima HoldUpYour Yakima HoldUp 2 Bike Rack for 2" Hitches - Platform Style - Tilting # Y02443 is not intended to hold a spare tire, but it's weight capacity of 60 lbs per bike should give it the durablity to do so. Using this rack for a spare tire will definitely void its warranty. Using a spare tire carrier like the MaxxTow Spare Tire Carrier for 3" x 5" Trailer Frames - 4-Lug and 5-Lug Wheels # MT70214 will be really bulky and won't attach to a bike frame without some customization.

- Do You Have a Spare Tire Carrier Designed for a 2 inch ReceiverWe do have a spare tire carrier that mounts into a 2 inch receiver. The Curt Trailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier, part number C31006, is a very nice mount that is easy to use and can be used with locks to secure the spare to the carrier and the carrier to the vehicle. You will need a hitch pin and clip or lock to secure the mount to the vehicle. Either the # PC3 Pin and Clip or the # 63232 Anti-Rattle Device and Lock would work well with this product and to secure the spare you...
view full answer... - How Can the Roadmaster Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier Be Secured to Deter Theft?The Roadmaster Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier w/ 2" Receiver Opening - 2" Hitches # RM-195225 can be secured with a hitch lock like the B&W Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 2" Hitches - Flush - 2-3/4" Span - Stainless Steel # BWTS51234. Then you can use a spare tire lock like the Fulton # FSTL0603 or etrailer.com lock # e98892.

It is the Roadmaster Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier w/ 2" Receiver Opening - 2" Hitches # RM-195225 and is made for RV. This is made to maintain the use of the hitch for mounting accessories or flat towing, but not for towing a trailer. It holds 16 inch to 24-1/2 inch spares with any bolt hole pattern. This will allow rear door access to your Dodge Trademan Camper Van. I recommend using the...
view full answer... - Recommended Lock for Fulton Hi-Mount Spare Tire CarrierYes, the BOLT Spare Tire Locks like part # BL5922986 will work with either the Fulton Hi-Mount Spare Tire Carrier part # FHDSTC0101 or the Fulton Hi-Mount Spare Tire Carrier part # FSTC1000301 as they both use 1/2-20" carriage bolts to secure the wheel.

Then from the top edge of the inside of your hitch receiver tube to the top of the handle measures 70-1/2" tall but then that is reduced to 42-1/2" with the unit retracted.

- Recommended Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier Compatible With Bike RackThere is one spare tire mount made for an application like this. It is the Roadmaster Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier w/ 2" Receiver Opening - 2" Hitches # RM-195225. This will give you a spare tire holder that can swing down for easier removal and will give you a 2 inch receiver for a bike rack.

I have attached a photo of the mounting hole dimensions for the Curt carrier so that you can ensure that your spare tire will fit. You may also consider using the Spare Tire Lock # e98892...

- Will BOLT Spare Tire Lock Work on Boat Trailer Spare TireTechnically yes, the BOLT Spare Tire Lock # BL5922986 will lock onto a boat trailer's spare tire and will hold up to possibly being submerged. The problem you will run into is the lock is designed to fit into the recessed well that you won't normally find on trailer wheels. If you use the lock on a wheel where the entire lock is exposed it would be fairly easy for a would-be thief to get to the lug nut and spin it off by hand. A better option for your trailer's spare tire might be...
view full answer... - Which Trailer Spare Tire Locks Can Be Keyed AlikeThis particular product, Master Lock # 262DAT, is manufactured with unique keys. In order to have multiple locks all keyed the same you will need a lock such as the Dead Bolt # e98892.

view full answer... - Lock Recommendation to Lock a Spare Tire to Curt Trailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire CarrierWheel Lock Set for 1/2" Wheel Bolts (2 Locks, 1 Key) Item # RG01-150 could be used with a 1/2 inch bolt to hold the spare to the Curt Trailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier Item # C31006. Or, even better, use Spare Tire Lock Item # e98892 which comes with a lock and key and the bolt.
view full answer... - Fit of Master Lock Spare Tire Lock # 262DAT on 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Spare TireAccording to my research, the wheel studs on your Wrangler Unlimited are 1/2 inch diameter, which means that the Master Lock Spare Tire Lock # 262DAT should work just fine for you. Our etrailer.com lock # e98892 would also work if your spare tire has at least 3/4 inches of clearance behind it, and you have an available lug opening that passes through the carrier on the vehicle.
view full answer... - Will Roadmaster Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier # RM-195225 Fit a Roadtrek 190VNo one who has left a review at this point has mentioned having a Roadtrek RV. If the hitch is a 2 inch then I can't see why it would not work. Having the hitch off center, while odd, would not prevent the use of the Roadmaster Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier # RM-195225. To deter tire theft I recommend a wheel lock such as # e98892.
view full answer... - Can the Roadmaster Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier Tow a TrailerThe Roadmaster Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier # RM-195225 referenced in your question is designed for mounting hitch accessories and flat towing. The manufacturer states that this product is not rated for towing a trailer. The spare tire carrier does have a tongue weight of 400 pounds and flat towing capacity of 10,000 pounds, but keep in mind that using the carrier will reduce the tongue weight capacity of your trailer hitch by 33 percent. This is a great option for carrying your...

It is not a fit for the 1997 Cherokee. I checked with Aries to make certain. But we do have spare tire carrier options that might work. We offer the Curt Universal Spare Tire Carrier # C31006 which fits into a 2-inch hitch. This can be used with anti-rattle lock # 63232 which secures it to the hitch and Spare Tire Lock # e98892 which secures the spare to the carrier.
