Determining the Bolt Pattern
The first number in the bolt pattern is the number of bolt holes. The second number denotes the diameter, in inches, of the circle on which the bolt holes sit.
To determine the bolt-circle diameter on wheels with an odd number of bolt holes, measure from the center of any bolt hole to the point halfway between the two bolt holes directly across from the first. (Example: "5 on 4-1/2" means 5 bolt holes with 4-1/2" measured to a point halfway between the opposite bolt holes.)
On wheels with an even number of bolt holes, measure from the center of one bolt hole to the center of the hole directly across from it. (Example: "8 on 6-1/2" means 8 bolt holes with 6-1/2" from the center of one hole to the center of another on the opposite side.)
Measuring the distance from the center of one bolt hole on the wheel to the center of a bolt hole right next to it can also help to determine the bolt pattern.
- If D = 2-5/8", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-1/2"
- If D = 2-3/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 4-3/4"
- If D = 3", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5"
- If D = 3-1/4", then the bolt pattern is 5 on 5-1/2"

I had to modify to fit my aluminum trailer. etrailer did not offer a carrier large enough to fit and the return shipping cost negated sending it back.
by: Chris01/16/2019
This is a easy and straightforward installation, the instructions are very well written and easy to understand, it took me approximately seven minutes to install. I did a lot of research online for a spare tire mount and found this one to be the least expensive and has the highest customer ratings of all that I looked at. I have an aluminum trailer and it shows to mount it in this location, i’m not sure it will work being so close to the hitch I may have to move it to the side of the trailer which means I’ll have to drill holes I’ll post pics if I do .
by: Brandon02/08/2024
Good product the washers that lock the carriage bolts in place don’t hold well so it makes it a bit harder to start the hold down bolts.

Tire carrier fits great; thanks for the follow up!
by: Bela12/16/2022
Great product. I got it for my Triton ATV trailer. Make sure check the size of the frame it needs to be installed. On the Triton trailer the frame is a bit bigger so I had to modify the installation but it wasn't a big deal. It was my fault haven't measured the frame size. I recommend this product.

I needed a way to carry a spare tire on my ATV trailer before my luck ran out and I got stranded with a flat. This works perfectly. It's well contructed, and should last for the life of the trailer. The description allowed me to be sure it would fit, and customer service has been very good.

Very happy, it does exactly what I need it to do.

The material is very heavy duty and installation only took 15 minutes.
Works very well to free up more space in a small cargo trailer.

Fantastic price, great selection, and free shipping to boot. I needed new tires for a long ATV trip and wanted a spare tire as well (I know, I know, but I usually only trailer locally). I ordered these radial tires and rims pre-mounted which allowed me to use one of the old wheels as my spare. Everything performed flawlessly over about 600 miles and even held their torque specs when I checked them during and after the trip. The spare tire carrier compliments the galvanized trailer frame and rims and looks like it will hold up to the elements of the North East. All in all, I highly recommend these products and etrailer.

Very sturdy tire mount and worked very well for my trailer. I would recommend this product if you are in the market for one.

I still have the spare tire carrier and am still very happy with it. would recommend it others.
by: Dave S09/25/2016
This is a well constructed Fulton Hi-Mount offset spare tire carrier for my 1956 trailer. It fit perfectly on may 3" main channel with parts to spare. The shorter bolts may be useful elsewhere. There is plenty of ground clearance for my 5 hole 8" spare tire with plenty of clearance from the bumper and trailer jack. This took me about 30 minutes to install on the side yard of my garage. It may have taken me longer due to the need to locate the tools I would need for the installation but I was in no rush. With the spare tire mounted high and aft of the tongue hitch it feels very secure for highway travel. I may need to fine a way to lock the tire to the trailer to deter theft but I am happy with this unit so far.
by: Joy Berg08/07/2016
This trailer spare tire mount is an excellent product. It is easy to attach on the trailer and takes all of about 10 minutes. The product is very well made and sturdy. My husband and I highly recommend this spare tire mount for trailers.
Thank you etrailer.

This is the second product I have ordered from etrailer and I must say I am a satisfied customer. Products are as described (no surprises) and were shipped fast to my house. I bought the trailer hitch kit and mounted to my VW Tiguan. Everything lined up perfectly. I recently ordered the spare tire mount for my LoadRite trailer and and it fit perfectly. Great company with great products and excellent customer service

I have two little Honda CT-90's, and a couple of months ago I purchased a small utility trailer to haul them around on. I've been really concerned because there was no place for a spare tire. Problem solved. I bought your Fulton Hi-Mount spare tire rack and had it installed in about 30 minutes. The little 12" tire fits on the rack perfectly. THANKS!
by: John T.08/22/2016
Placed my order hoping I would get it in a couple of weeks before I left for Maine.
Instead I got it in a "WEEK", how good is that for customer service! I also ordered the spare tire carrier FSTC1000301which came in the same shipment. I mounted it as you can see and it worked out great. Thanks George
by: Jack07/26/2014
Had to add a spare tire on a trailer I purchased and this fit the bill for me. I don't think it is for an 8 inch wheel but it is on the trailer and the spare tire is mounted on it just fine.
by: Bob D04/14/2020
Will use to mount a spare tire and wheel to my open car hauling trailer. It is well made. Installation instructions are complete and easy to follow. Very satisfied.
by: Charles07/12/2019
Bought a used ATV trailer and needed a spare tire. Decided to replace both old wheels & tires with new, so needed to mount the 2 old wheels. This Tire Carrier fit perfectly on my trailer, start to finish I spent just 30 minutes total mounting the carrier & then the spares. A couple of notes, both 3" long & 4" long frame mounting bolts are provided, so the carrier would fit a wide range of trailer frames (mine was 2"x2"). Supplied tire nuts are 3/4 inch; trailer lug nuts are 13/16 but this was not an issue as I use an old-fashioned 4-way wheel wrench, which accommodates both size nuts. As mounted, both spares are perhaps 1/2" further out than the fenders, so a much better fit than I expected -- and no problem with the standard 5x4-1/2" wheel pattern, fit perfectly. Delivered promptly and zero issues, I will certainly use E-trailer again.
by: Aaron 09/05/2023
Great to know that anytime I leave the house with the trailer I have a spare. Works well.
by: Capt Bruce04/01/2017
Boater's have known for along time that Fulton products are a step above most others out there. I bought this spare tire bracket to replace one that was stolen along with my spare tire and rim. I put heavy chain around the trailer frame and thru the wheel this time as you can see in the picture. Many thanks to etrailer.com for being so fast with their shipping . This is the very best company I have seen in many years and they truly understand what consumers want--great customer service!
by: Kelly S03/25/2020
Love this... very tight space to mount the spare... have 1" between the boat and tire. Perfect fit for me. Don't mind the RV tire cover!
by: Warren01/16/2019
Nice quality fulton spare tire mount. Very sturdy, heavy duty with stainless mounting bolts. Fit my boat trailer without issue, keeping the new spare at a perfect location. Great price and very fast shipping from etrailer.
by: Bruce07/22/2016
I bought the spare tire, mount and cover cheaper than I could purchase just the exact same tire somewhere else. I received the tire and it was very easy to mount to my trailer and the cover made it look very professional. Would highly recommend.
by: JAC0710/28/2023
Perfect offset for the waverunner spare.
by: Sean C.10/06/2017
If you are looking for a sturdy spare tire mount for your utility trailer, then purchase the Fulton Hi-mount Spare Tire Carrier. The instructions are simple and the product installs as stated. Thanks again to etrailer for another great product.
by: Dan Waddle03/24/2015
Really easy to install (once I read the instructions!!!!)
Got it installed in less than 10 Mins (even including initial blind attempt)
Rebecca provided great customer service by adding this carrier after my initial purchase of a spare tire and wheel was already submitted and they arrived the next day!!! Most companies would have made it two separate purchases.

- Bearing Kit for 3,500 lb Trailer Axle and LED Clearance Light for Pace Utility TrailerThe thickness is right at 1/8 of an inch for the mounting plate of the spare carrier part # FSTC1000301. For the LED version of the light in your picture you would want the part # AL91RB. Or part # MCL95RB for a version of the light that includes a base. The correct bearing kit for a 3,500 lb trailer axle is the part # BK2-100.

- Can Two Fulton Hi-Mount Spare Tire Carriers # FSTC1000301 Be Mounted Together on Trailer TongueWhile it is certainly a good idea to carry a second spare tire on your trailer we do not recommend mounting two of the Fulton Hi-Mount Spare Tire Carriers # FSTC1000301 back to back. Apart from the need for some stronger (and unknown) grade of hardware, which you note, there is the concern that the torsional forces applied to the trailer frame from both tire carriers will be concentrated in one spot. We do not recommend this, but instead suggest that you mount the two tire carriers independently...

This wheel has a white powder coating, if you'd prefer silver or black then you can click on the link below that will take you to our available options.

Some drilling may be required to get it installed if you mount it on the front of the bed. This fits a 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern with 10" diameter or larger wheels.

view full answer... - What Side Should my Spare Tire Mount go on my TrailerEither one is fine to do. With the Fulton Hi-Mount Spare Tire Carrier part # FSTC1000301 you are not going to be adding a great deal of width to your trailer so the difference is minimum. Giving you my opinion since there is no rule I would Choose the side I access less which for me would be the passenger's side. I find myself hopping out of the driver's seat and hopping into the trailer from that side so I would want to have it on passenger's side to keep that area open for access.

While this carrier is designed to fit frames up to 4" tall, you can source longer bolts to be able to attach it to your 8" tall frame. The Fulton Hi-Mount Spare Tire Carrier # FSTC1000301 will only fit frames up to 3" wide and 4" tall.

- Spare Tire Carrier Recommendation for Elite Malibu Boat TrailerI looked up your Elite custom malibu trailer and found that it's a pretty standard style of boat trailer which we typically recommend spare tire carriers like the # FSTC1000301 which fits 4 on 4 bolt pattern and 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern with 10" diameter or larger wheels. Looking at the pictures of your trailer they all seem to have 5 lug bolt patterns so this would be a great option.

view full answer... - Bolt-On Spare Tire Carrier with Lift for Better Ground ClearanceWe do offer bolt-on spare tire carriers like the Fulton # FSTC1000301 which provides a bit over 7-inches of lift for better ground clearance. In many cases this will provide much better clearance than a simple u-bolt type carrier like # CE22007Z-11050-2. All spare tire carriers, including the hitch-mount type like # C31006, can be seen on the page I linked for you.
view full answer... - Recommended Lock for Fulton Hi-Mount Spare Tire CarrierYes, the BOLT Spare Tire Locks like part # BL5922986 will work with either the Fulton Hi-Mount Spare Tire Carrier part # FHDSTC0101 or the Fulton Hi-Mount Spare Tire Carrier part # FSTC1000301 as they both use 1/2-20" carriage bolts to secure the wheel.
view full answer... - Weld On Spare Wheel/Tire Carrier Recommendation for Trailer Frame 5.5 Inches WideOnly solution we'd have is a weld on spare wheel carrier like the Redline part # 413200 as your trailer frame is wider than what any of our bolt on style carriers will fit.

- Spare Tire Carrier Recommendation for a Trailer with Angle Iron Side RailsThe Fulton Economy Spare Tire Carrier with Wheel Nut Lock # FETCSTL0701 would work just fine on a section of angle iron that is 2 inches by 2 inches. The frame does not have to completely fill out the U-bolt to allow the carrier to install. I wouldn't recommend the # FSTC1000301 for a trailer with angle iron rails.

- Utility Trailer Spare Tire Mount For 2x2 Solid Angle Iron TrailerThe spare tire carrier # FSTC1000301 will work great on a 2 x 2 inch frame. There may be some modification required or some spacer pieces for the best fit though. The tire mount is compatible with wheels that have 4 on 4 or 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt patterns on 10 inch or larger diameter wheels. Included are video resources with additional information to review.

Time for the yearly review, I have to say this was an awesome purchase, it outside all year long and their is no rust on it. Too bad I can’t post pictures, but I have to say if you want a quality spare tire mount this is the one you should get hands-down.
