If you can lighten your bikes down to 75 lbs total then the Thule Spare Me 2 Bike Rack item # TH963PRO will work. This is our highest capacity spare tire bike rack. It will work with all current vehicles with factory rear-mounted spare tires. It fits tires up to 12.5" wide x 33" in diameter. The carrier will not fit vehicles with spare-tire-mounted backup cameras.
If you have a vehicle with a spare tire camera, like a Jeep, you can use the Hollywood Racks SR1 2-Bike Carrier item # HRSR1.... view full answer...
We have one spare tire mounted bike rack that fits offset spares at the back of a vehicle like your 2002 Honda CR-V. For that we have the Thule Spare Me part # TH963PRO which would work well.
I wouldn't recommend a spare mounted bike rack for a vehicle that wasn't capable of an offset on a vehicle with an offset spare. view full answer...
The Yakima Spare Tire Bike Rack part # Y02599 does not have the ability to be offset.
For an offset spare tire, I recommend the Thule Spare Me 2 Bike Rack - Spare Tire Mount - Folding Dual Arms # TH963PRO which can be mounted offset 4 inches to either the right or the left. It is also a confirmed fit for your 2002 Honda CR-V. view full answer...
Yes, the Hollywood Racks Spare Tire Bike Rack, # HRSR2, will allow you to carry 2 bikes with your 2004 Jeep Wrangler. This bike rack is easy to install, but you will have to remove your rear mounted spare tire to install the bike rack. You will not have to remove the spare tire each time you want to remove or reinstall the bike rack. The benefit of this type of installation is that the bike rack cannot be easily stolen from your vehicle. I have attached an installation video of this bike... view full answer...
The phrase "without spare tire mounted backup camera" means that if the 2011 Toyota FJ Cruiser has a spare tire backup camera the rack will not fit. Models that do not have a camera mounted at the spare will not have a problem.
Since your FJ does have the spare tire mounted backup camera none of the spare tire bike racks will fit but there is another way to carry bikes at the back of the vehicle. You can install a trailer hitch such as # 75461 and use a hitch mounted bike rack.

The Yakima SpareRide bike rack # Y02599 includes two extensions, allowing it to fit wider tires. As long as the spare tire on your 2007 Toyota Rav4 has a width of P195 to P318, the bike rack would be a great fit. The width will be the first part of the tire size number on the sidewall of the spare. view full answer...
While there are spare tire mount bike racks that will fit your 2007 Toyota RAV4 the Malone RunWay # MPG2148 will not due to the spare tire cover. You would have to take off the whole spare tire cover so all that is left is the spare tire and then you could mount this rack.
What I recommend is a rack that mounts using the same location as the spare tire such as the SpareRide # Y02599. However, the available racks that do fit, like the SpareRide, hold 2 bikes maximum.

The bike rack that I recommend for you and your 2008 Toyota RAV4 is the Yakima SpareRide 2 Bike Rack, # Y02599. This is a spare tire mount bike rack that is lightweight and easy to mount and remove. It also does not interfere with access to the rear cargo area.
The most difficult part of this bike rack is the initial installation. This bike rack uses a mounting plate that installs behind the spare tire. You will have to remove the spare tire to install the mounting plate, but once it... view full answer...
According to Hollywood Racks, their # HRSR1 trunk mounted bike rack fits spare tires up to 15 inches wide, so as long as your spare tire isn't wider than that, the # HRSR1 would allow you to carry 2 bikes weighing up to 35 lbs each on your Jeep Wrangler Unlimited as long as you don't have the spare tire mounted back up camera which would interfere with installing a spare tire mounted rack.
Hollywood Racks makes an outstanding product that would work great for you. If you click the provided... view full answer...
The best way to determine if a bike rack will clear the spare on a Jeep Wrangler is to measure from the center of the hitch pin hole on the trailer hitch to the back edge of the spare tire (see photo). We list this dimension on all of our bike rack product pages. We recommend measuring because this dimension can be different depending on the brand of the trailer hitch and the width of the spare tire.
For example, we installed a Curt Class III trailer hitch, # 13432, and this dimension... view full answer...
Since the 2007 Toyota RAV4 has a spare tire on the back, you will not be able to use a trunk mount bike rack such as # HRF2, but you can use a spare tire mount bike rack. You can use # TH963PRO. This rack lets you carry 2 bikes of different sizes and styles on your spare tire. It has dual arms with anti-sway cradles, and it adjusts for various tire sizes and for offset spares. Locks secure your bikes to the rack and the rack.

If you want to use a spare tire bike rack like the Malone RunWay 3 Bike Rack part # MPG2148 on a vehicle with rear spare tire, you'll need to remove the spare tire cover while the rack is in use. In addition to scratches, the spare tire cover can cause the bike rack to shift and you run the risk of damage. In summary, if you want to carry the bikes with the rear spare tire you'll need to remove the cover. The other options entail installing a hitch or roof rack but these are much more expensive. view full answer...
According to Surco, their # BT300 spare tire mounted bike rack can handle three bikes weighing up to 35 lbs apiece for a total capacity of 105 lbs. I'm not aware of any vehicle manufacturer having a stated capacity for their spare tire holder. We've never heard of a factory installed spare tire mount on a vehicle failing because a spare tire mount bike rack was used, the rack should work just fine for you. view full answer...
The spare tire bike rack that I would recommend for your 2009 Toyota Rav4 is the Thule Spare Me 2 Bike Carrier - Spare Tire Mount, item # TH963PRO. This rack is designed to fit your vehicle as long as the original spare tire is in place or, if a larger spare has been added, the measurement from the back of the wheel, where it sets against the spare tire mount, is 5-1/4 inches or less. The old TH963 rack will not work on the 2009 Rav4 but the newer # TH963PRO is newly designed to work on... view full answer...
The spare tire bike rack I recommend for your 2017 Jeep Wrangler is the Yakima SpareRide 2 Bike Rack # Y02599.
Keep in mind because this is a hanging rack, if you plan on carrying kids' bikes or bikes with a step-through or alternative frame you will need to give the bikes a horizontal mounting point with the Bike Frame Adapter Bar # HRBA-PRO. view full answer...
The Saris "B" plate for their spare tire mount bike racks is not a confirmed fit for the SportRack bike rack. Your best option to carry bikes on your 2011 Jeep Wrangler is to use a trailer hitch and a bike rack that will extend out far enough to clear the spare tire.
If your Jeep does not already have a hitch I recommend etrailer hitch # e98856 because with it the receiver sticks out further than other hitches making it more likely for bike racks to clear the spare tire. Once the hitch... view full answer...
We do offer bike racks that work for your 2000 Honda CR-V. These racks mount to the spare tire, and would be the least expensive choice when choosing a bike carrier. I have attached a link to our product page for spare tire mounted bike racks for your 2000 Honda CR-V.
I would recommend the Hollywood Racks SR1 2-Bike Carrier, part # HRSR1. Since your photo shows the spare tire is off center, this rack may be a good choice. You can adjust the arm support bar so that the bike is mounted... view full answer...
To make sure a hitch bike rack will work on your Hummer H3 you will need to measure to make sure the bike rack will clear your spare tire.
If you measure from the center of your hitch pin hole to the farthest part on the back of your vehicle, which would be your spare tire, and that measures less than 11-1/2 inches then you could use the Swagman Dispatch Bike Rack # S44FR. I have included a link to instructions for the proper installation of this product.

Installing and removing the Swagman Around-the-Spare-Tire Deluxe Rack, part # S80501 is a breeze. The bike rack is designed so that a spare tire can remain bolted to your rear bumper while bolting this bike rack around it.
The bike rack is attached to your bumper by U bolts. Once the bike rack is on, the spare tire sits between the two uprights. To remove the spare tire, once the bike rack is bolted to the bumper, you'll remove the locking pins located on the lower section of the uprights.... view full answer...
