Your spare tire carrier is going to depend on a few things, including your wheel bolt pattern, your tire size, your trailer frame width, and whether or not you want the carrier to provide a rise.
We offer several options that fit a variety of tires. The Fulton Hi-Mount Spare Tire Carrier, Item # FHDSTC0101, fits 4-, 5-, and 6-lug wheels up to 16-1/2 inches in diameter. On 5-lug wheels, however, it only fits 5-on-4-1/2 inch bolt pattern wheels. It also fits trailer tongues up to 3 inches wide and 5 inches high. It provides a 4-3/4" lift.
We also carry the Fulton Economy Spare Tire Carrier with Wheel Nut Lock, Item # FETCSTL0701. This model fits 8 inch, 9 inch, 12 inch, 13 inch, 14 inch, and 15 inch wheels with 4- or 5-lug rims. It is compatible with 3-inch trailer frames and does not provide lift.
We also carry several universal products, such as the Curt Trailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier, Item # C31006, which will fit any wheel bolt pattern and is compatible with 2x2-inch trailer hitch receivers.
Also keep in mind that, wherever you attach the spare tire, you will want to make sure you have enough clearance between the tire and any other objects close by—bumpers, ladders, mounted accessories, etc.
I've attached several review videos of these products for you to check out. I've also included some helpful articles on finding your bolt pattern and determining your tire size.
If you'd like to send me your tire size and bolt pattern, I can make a more specific recommendation that might work for you.
