I do have an option for you but most hitch mounted spare tire carriers like the etrailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier part # e98ZR aren't rated for motorhome wheels/tires. The main issue is that the mounting system won't accommodate wheels with large bolt patterns like 8 on 6-1/2" so instead you will need to use a carrier designed for this exact purpose, the Roadmaster Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier part # RM-195225.

Hey Jesus! The #e98ZR comes with an alignment collar and a hitch pin. The Curt #C31006 does not include these and costs a little more. Outside of that, they are the exact same spare mount with different branding. What rig are you setting this up on?
