MAXXHAUL Spare Tire Carrier for 10-inch & 12-inch Trailer Tires — Powder Coat Black, Bolt-On Angled Mount

MAXXHAUL 70214 is a powder-coated spare tire carrier designed to mount to trailer tongues and securely carry 10" or 12" utility trailer spare wheels with 4- or 5-lug hubs (compatible with specific bolt patterns).

This compact spare tire carrier bolts directly to the tongue of your utility or boat trailer to keep a spare wheel accessible without taking up floor or inside storage. Built from welded steel with a corrosion-resistant powder coat and zinc-plated hardware, it’s meant for light-duty trailer use where simple, reliable tire storage is needed. The bracket’s raised and angled design also helps clear boat hulls and other low-slung loads.

How does the MAXXHAUL 70214 attach to my trailer?

The carrier mounts to the trailer tongue using the included zinc-plated bolts and brackets. It accepts tongues up to 3" wide and 5" high, providing a secure bolted connection that keeps the spare stable during travel.

• Fits trailer tongues up to 3" wide and 5" high
• Zinc-plated mounting hardware included for corrosion resistance
• Simple bolt-on installation—no welding required

Which wheel and lug patterns are supported?

This carrier is sized specifically for 10" and 12" utility trailer tires and accommodates common 4-lug and 5-lug patterns used on many small trailers. Check your wheel’s bolt pattern before purchase to confirm compatibility.

• Compatible with 4-lug wheels (4 on 4" bolt pattern)
• Compatible with 5-lug wheels (5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern)
• Not compatible with 5 on 4-3/4" or 5 on 5" bolt patterns

Will this carrier resist rust and outdoor wear?

The steel frame is finished in a durable powder coat to help prevent rust and fading from sun exposure. Combined with zinc-plated fasteners, the assembly is tailored for outdoor trailer use but still benefits from regular inspection and touch-up in salty or coastal environments.

• Powder-coated steel frame for improved corrosion resistance
• Zinc-plated bolts and washers for long-term durability
• Periodic maintenance recommended in harsh climates

Is the design suitable for boat trailers or low-clearance loads?

The carrier’s angled and raised mounting configuration creates extra clearance, making it a practical choice for many boat trailers or situations where the spare needs to sit higher than the tongue to avoid interference.

• Angled mount keeps spare away from hulls and low cargo
• Raised bracket position provides added ground and load clearance
• Compact footprint preserves tongue space for other accessories

Who this is for: The MAXXHAUL 70214 spare tire carrier is aimed at owners of small utility, landscape, and boat trailers who need a compact, corrosion-resistant solution for carrying a 10" or 12" spare wheel. It works best for trailers using 4-on-4" or 5-on-4-1/2" bolt patterns and for users who prefer an easy bolt-on installation without welding. If your wheel uses a different bolt pattern (for example, 5 on 4-3/4" or 5 on 5"), or you require a carrier for larger tires, consider a different model that matches those specifications.
