Peace of mind knowing your spare is there whenif it is a ever needed. We installed it over a year ago, easy peasy, and still looksworks like new.



by:

All items packaged very well. They arrived ahead of scheduled delivery date. Very high quality fit and finish. Assembly and installation were simple. This is a great answer to the 'no spare tire' issue on many motorhomes!



by:

I purchased this lock, read the instructions and installed as instructed. After the first trip with it it went missing and must have loosened and fallen off!
I would not recommend this product or e-trailer’s customer service.
Buyer beware!!!

Works like a champ!

@Markg Nice! Glad the spare’s still secure! And hey - don’t shoot the lock. Unless it knows too much and you’re tying up loose ends haha


by:

The first one had a problem, they sent me a new one right away.
I have been buying products form etrailer for for years, they have great customer service and good product=

Glad that the replacement worked out for you! What kind of trailer do you have?



by:

My Rv didn’t come with a spare tire. This is the finishing part for the spare tire setup on my Class C motorhome. Nice inexpensive deterrent when I’m away. Super easy installation, just twist about 4 times and take out the key and replace rubber cap.



by:

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!



by:

This is the 2nd product that I have purchased from etrailer.com in the past 5 months. In both instances the product arrived well before scheduled delivery and the communication was excellent. Product matched description. I will not hesitate to purchase more items thru this vendor and will recommend them to others. GREAT overall experience!!



by:

This is a great spare tire lock at a reasonable price. I installed mine today and it worked great. A new spare tire is expensive. This is a great option to protect your investment



by:

Fast shipping and good customer service. I like this lock rather than the old locking lug with key socket. It just seems simpler to use and is equal or greater in security. Would recommend.



by:

Better than using a cable with a padloc k.



by:

Proven lock design, like the best hitch-pin lock systems. And getting them keyed-alike just makes the wheel lock idea even better. The quality machine work and heavy duty lock barrel makes me confident that my spare tires will be safe and secure!

Quality product works great, even here in my coastal corrosive, saltylocation. Two spares, so locks keyed alike was a good option for me.



by:

Peace of mind and easy to install.



by:

Had to get used to getting the locking mechanism in the correct position. But it works good and does what I need it to.



by:

I ordered two locks keyed alike and received two locks that are not keyed alike. These locks are great for spare tires, that is why I ordered them. I was looking to get two keyed alike for my camper spare tires. I will just have to use what I received since we are going camping this weekend.



by:

Works great!



by:

American made solid of the rock none of that Chinese junk worth every dime



by:

Thanks for the great service. The product worked beautifully for my application.



by:

Easy installation good quality



by:

What I was looking for.



by:

Perfect fit for the spare tire on my FJ Cruiser.



by:

We are headed to Alaska in September and needed a trailer hitch receiver for our 2015 Forester so we could mount a full size tire to have in case we blew a tire. Husband very happy with the quality of the hitch receiver plus the spare tire lock, hitch alignment collar, anti -rattle hitch pin lock, wiring harness and the stabilizing strap. Fast service! Thank you!!!

  • Could Locking Lug Nut be Used to Lock Wheel to etrailer Spare Tire Carrier # e99045
    The 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.

  • 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 Blue Ox Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock for 2" Hitches - Flush - 2-3/4" Span - Chrome # BX8858. Then you can use a spare tire lock like the Fulton # FSTL0603 or etrailer.com lock # e98892.

  • Recommended Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier Compatible With Bike Rack
    There 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 recommend using a lock like # e98892 to secure your spare and a hitch lock like # BD580402 to secure your accessory. For a bike rack, I recommend the Swagman Dispatch 2 Bike Platform Rack...

  • What is the Shackled Diameter, Length, and Width on the Roadmaster Quick-Disconnect Padlock?
    Hello Tim, I'm always looking for a good excuse to stretch my legs, so I was happy to head out to the warehouse and grab the measurements you requested. The Roadmaster Quick-Disconnect Padlock #RM-301 has a shackle that's 1/4" thick, with a vertical clearance of 1-1/4" and a horizontal clearance of 3/4". I've attached an image for reference as well. We also have the etrailer Spare Tire Lock for 1/4" to 7/8" Thick Rims - Keyed Alike # e98892 which would work great for locking the wheel...

  • Recommended Spare Tire Carrier For Class C Motorhome
    We 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...

  • Will The etrailer Spare Tire Lock # e98892 Work With The Roadmaster Spare Tire Carrier
    Hey Rick, The etrailer Spare Tire Lock # e98892 will work with the Roadmaster Hitch Spare Tire Mount # RM-195225 and fit wheels that are 1/4" - 7/8" thick. You'll need to doublecheck that your wheel isn't too thick. If your wheel is thicker let me know and we can look for an alternative solution.

  • Can Roadmaster Spare Carrier # RM-195125 Work on Winnebago Travato
    The Roadmaster Spare Tire Carrier # RM-195125 that you referenced does fit the hitch of your 2021 Ram Promaster Winnebago Travato. While we haven't had any customers come back with your specific RV we know your hitch is standard enough that this would work well. To lock the wheel to the Roadmaster Spare Carrier part # RM-195125 the part # e98892 would be a great option and then for a hitch lock the part # e98880 would work really well.

  • Roadmaster Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier For 22.5" Wheels On a 2012 Tiffin Allegro Motorhome
    The Roadmaster Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier w/ 2" Receiver Opening # RM-195225 is the carrier you need for the 22.5" wheels on your 2012 Tiffin Allegro 30GA. It has the extra long opening for the 11-1/4" lug pattern of your wheels to securely mount to the carrier. The Roadmaster Spare Tire Carrier # RM-195125 will only allow for wheels with a lug pattern of up to 8". A etrailer Spare Tire Lock # e98892 will secure a wheel that is between 1/4" to 7/8" thick.

  • Trailer Spare Tire Lock That Threads Together
    I 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".

    The Stake Pocket Tie-Down Anchor # T355 measure 3-1/2" by 1-1/2". If you measure again (sand down if necessary), you probably actually have the standard 3-1/2" by 1-1/2" opening and not 3-1/2" by 1-3/8", in which case this would work well for you. For a spare tire carrier that would fit the standard 3-1/2" by 1-1/2" stake pockets we have the Buyers Products Stake Pocket Spare Tire Carrier # 3375201012 or the Brophy Trailer Stake Pocket Spare Tire Carrier - Black Powder Coat # SPTC.

  • Will the etrailer.com Spare Tire Lock Work On the Spare Wheel on a 2009 Jeep Wrangler Sahara
    As 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.

  • Will BOLT Spare Tire Lock Work on Boat Trailer Spare Tire
    Technically 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 the...

  • Recommended Spare Tire Hitch Mount And Locks For 2000 Ford F-550
    The 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 HoldUp
    Your 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.

  • Is There a Longer etrailer Spare Tire Lock
    The etrailer Spare Tire Lock for 1/4" to 7/8" Thick Rims # e98892 is actually a rebrand of the DeadBolt lock so this is the exact same thing. We don't make it in any other size though so if this isn't long enough you'll need a different solution like a cable lock you can wrap in and around the spare tire and your trailer frame. If you want to go this route I recommend the 10' Long etrailer Cable Lock # e98891.
