VEVOR Spare Tire Carrier — 160 lb No‑Drill Trailer Spare Mount, Fits 4/5/6/8‑Lug Wheels & Multiple Bolt Patterns

VEVOR's Spare Tire Carrier is a heavy-duty, no-drill trailer mount that secures a spare wheel up to 160 pounds across common 4, 5, 6 and 8-lug bolt patterns.

Whether you tow a utility trailer, boat trailer, or work trailer, having a dedicated spare tire mount on the tongue keeps your spare accessible, off the trailer bed and out of the way. This carrier is built from wrought iron with a rust-resistant powder coat, includes galvanized hardware, and fits a broad range of bolt-circle measurements so you can mount most standard trailer wheels without modification.

How simple is installation for this spare tire mount?

Installation is designed to be quick and tool-light: you only need one wrench and no drilling is required. The carrier uses a bolt-in clamp and inclined protrusion that locks the tire firmly, reducing wind drag and preserving ground clearance.

• No-drill installation—mounts to existing trailer tongues
• All necessary galvanized hardware included in the box
• Single-wrench assembly streamlines installation
• Inclined bolt protrusion secures tire and resists loosening

Will this fit my trailer wheel’s bolt pattern and size?

Yes. The carrier is engineered to accommodate many common lug and bolt-circle configurations used on trailers. It lists compatibility across 4, 5, 6 and 8-lug patterns and accepts multiple bolt circle diameters so it matches most standard trailer rims.

• Fits 4-, 5-, 6- and 8-lug wheels commonly used on trailers
• Compatible with bolt patterns including 4", 4.25", 4.5", 4.75", 5", 5.5", 6", 6.5"
• Works with standard trailer rims without adapters in most cases
• Ideal for trailers, including marine and utility applications

How durable and weather-resistant is the carrier?

Constructed from heavy-gauge wrought iron with double-sided stiffeners, this mount supports up to 160 pounds and concentrates strength where it matters. A black powder-coat finish plus included galvanized fasteners help resist corrosion and prolong service life in outdoor and marine environments.

• Solid wrought-iron construction with reinforced stiffeners
• Rated capacity up to 160 lb for most trailer spares
• Protective black powder-coat finish for rust resistance
• Galvanized mounting hardware supplied for added corrosion protection

How does the carrier affect trailer clearance and aerodynamics?

The carrier’s inclined bolt fixing and compact profile hold the spare close to the tongue, minimizing ground-obstruction and wind resistance. Mounting the spare on the tongue rather than on the deck preserves cargo area and keeps the wheel from interfering with ramps or tailgates.

• Low-profile mounting reduces interference with loading operations
• Inclined lock keeps wheel snug, cutting down on wind drag
• Raised placement helps maintain ground clearance on uneven roads
• Saves deck space compared with bed or side-mounted spares

Who is this for: This VEVOR spare tire carrier is aimed at trailer owners who want a sturdy, corrosion-resistant mount that fits a wide range of wheel bolt patterns and installs without drilling. It's a practical choice for boat owners, landscapers, contractors, and weekend haulers who prefer a secure, out-of-the-way spare that preserves cargo space and endures outdoor use.
