With the Taskmaster 4.80/4.00-8 Bias Trailer Tire # AM30000 having a diameter of 16.1 inches when fully inflated, we will not have a perfect fit for a cover. The closest we will have will be the CE Smith Spare Tire Cover # CE27410, but this will fit tires up to 21 inches in diameter, so it will be very loose and will need modifications to fit snuggly.

We do also have the Classic Accessories RV Wheel Covers # CA80098, which technically isn't a spare tire cover, but can also be modified to work. This is for 18 to 21 inch diameter wheels as well, but may be easier to get fitting properly due to the bottom being opened.
