Question:
Bumper mount tire carriers - Will they carry aluminum wheels without damaging them?
asked by: Dave T
Expert Reply:
Yes, they will! The Ultra-Fab Folding Spare Tire Mount for Trailers and RVs item # UF15-954730, you were looking at, will work great with an aluminum wheel. It mounts to 4" wide box style bumpers and fits 5-, 6- and 8-lug automotive and trailer wheels.
Please note it will not work with 5-on-5 bolt pattern wheels, Class A or C motorhome tires, or dual rim wheels.
I have linked a review video below so you can see some of the features demonstrated.
