You can take a quick measurement to see if the Rola Swinging Enclosed Cargo Carrier, part # 59109 will clear your spare tire.

You will need a tape measure and a straight edge like a yardstick or a dowel. Place the straight edge vertically against the back of the spare tire, letting it extend below the trailer hitch receiver opening. Then measure from the center of the hitch pin to the straight edge. This will give you the distance you need to clear the spare tire.

The # 59109 has a capacity of 250 lbs but you will want to make sure you do not exceed the weight capacity of your hitch or Sprinter. The distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the crossbar of the # 59109 IS 8-1/8 inches, and from the center of the hitch pin hole to the back edge of the carrier measures 13 inches.
