Expert Reply:
Your 235/55-19 spare tire is about 30 inches in diameter. It will fit in the Yakima RocketBox # Y07192 but it will probably have to be placed in the box at a slight angle.
What I recommend is a cargo basket instead of a box. You can use the LoadWarrior # Y07070 and then use the spare tire carrier # Y07076 to hold the spare in the basket. You can lock the spare to the basket and carrier using a pad lock such as # 141T for a 2-pack.
