Hey Jim!
The best way to protect the receiver of your Roadmaster Hitch Spare Tire Mount # RM-195225 is with the Roadmaster Rollaway Trailer Hitch Protector # RM-050.
Most skid wheels mount to an RV bumper or frame, but this mounts via the hitch pin hole so it's perfect for your application.
Have you seen this issue mainly with steep parking lots? Or just parking lots in general?
