My favorite spare tire mounted bike rack is the Thule Spare Me # TH963PRO. The rack locks to the spare tire mount, and the rack includes an integrated cable lock to secure the bikes to the rack. The rack also includes anti-sway cradles that prevent the bikes from swaying back and forth during transport. The rack is compatible with tires ranging from 7-11/16 to 12-1/2 inches wide. In my opinion, the Spare Me provides the most features at a reasonable price.

If you'll be transporting women's bikes or bikes with sharply-angled top tubes, you might also consider a frame adapter bar like part # 64005. The bar spans the distance between the handlebar gooseneck and the seat post, which provides a secondary attachment point for the bike rack. This allows the bike to be carried level, which maximizes ground clearance. I'll link you to a video showing how the adapter bar works.
