Hi- Will the etrailer hitch #e98844 block the spare tire on our 2015 Toyota Highlander Limited? I believe we have a full sized spare? Thanks for your help,

The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2" # e98844 will not block the spare tire on your 2015 Toyota Highlander Limited unless it is on an aluminum wheel. The aluminum wheels are too wide.

I have attached an installation video of this hitch receivers being installed on similar 2018 Highlander for you to use as a reference.

If you let me know what you plan on using the hitch receiver for, I would be more than happy to make some recommendations for you.
