Can Demco Spare Carrier Carry a 5 Lug Wheel
Updated 09/21/2026 | Published 09/18/2026
Question:
I recently bought part 15851-72 job BF2955236 for my trailer spare. The bolt pattern is for either a 6 lug tire. I have a 5 lug. Did I get the correct part or did I miss something else I need to mount a 5 lug spare to the bracket?

Hey David, the Demco Spare Tire Mount # DM15851-76 that you referenced definitely can be used with a 5 lug bolt pattern. I attached a picture that shows a 5 lug bolt pattern wheel mounted to it for you to check out. Are you trying to use more than one bolt to secure the wheel?
