Spare Tire Mount

The Spare Tire Mount (SKU: DZZ95040TB) is an essential exterior storage solution designed for drivers who demand reliable tire accessibility on and off pavement. Built by DEE ZEE, a trusted name in automotive accessories for decades, this mount addresses a common pain point: secure, weatherproof spare tire storage that doesn't consume interior cabin or bed space. Whether you're tackling remote trails, highway cross-country trips, or simply maximizing cargo flexibility, a dedicated spare tire carrier keeps your tire protected while freeing up valuable real estate for gear, recovery equipment, or daily cargo.

This mount employs a straightforward yet durable design engineered to accommodate standard full-size or compact spare tires while resisting corrosion and road debris exposure. The carrier is manufactured to withstand the vibration, temperature cycling, and UV radiation inherent to exterior mounting, with a steel or reinforced composite construction that maintains rigidity over hundreds of thousands of miles. Fastening points are engineered for secure attachment to your vehicle's frame or bumper structure, distributing load stress evenly to prevent flex or rattling during acceleration, braking, and cornering. The compact footprint—measuring 8 x 8 x 25 inches and weighing 7.36 lbs—ensures clearance for rear doors, hatchbacks, or cargo access while remaining light enough not to noticeably impact fuel economy or handling balance.

Off-road enthusiasts, overlanders, and truck owners benefit most from this spare tire mount, particularly those operating vehicles in remote regions where tire failure repair options are limited. Installation is straightforward for any mechanic or DIY enthusiast with basic hand tools and a torque wrench; mounting hardware connects directly to existing frame or bumper mount points without permanent modification. The carrier is compatible with most truck beds, SUV rear bumpers, and adventure vehicle platforms that feature standard 2-inch or 2.5-inch receiver boxes or frame attachment points. Always verify your specific vehicle's mounting surface before ordering, and ensure the mounted tire doesn't obstruct brake lights, trailer connections, or backup camera views.
