The Roadmaster Spare Carrier # RM-195125 has a maximum pull capacity of 6,000 lbs and a maximum tongue weight of 200 lbs and can accommodate up to a 16.5 inch tire. So you'd be able to carry wheel and tire that weighs up to 200 lbs and has a rim diameter less than 16.5 inches.

Putting this on a Class C motorhome and would like to add a cargo box on back that has up to 500 lb capacity. so does the tongue weight of 200 lbs limit me. The tire and rim are a LT225/75R16 and I am not sure of the weight. Thank You Kurt

If you're wanting to add the cargo box to the 2" receiver on the Spare Tire Carrier, you would need to adhere to its 200 pound tongue weight limit. Since this would also include the weight of the tire, this really wouldn't leave you much capacity left for your cargo. You might be better off with the Roadmaster # RM-195225, which features a higher 400 pound limit.
