Recommended Cover for 26 Inch Diameter Spare Tire

Question:

Hi Id like to order a spare tire cover for our travel trailer, measured tire from top to bottom. It measures 26 inch, does that mean I need a 26 inch tire cover or what size would i order? Thanks Ps what is the best solution for winter storage of travel trailer - currently tires on boards to get off ground, but with all the rain the tires are sitting in water. What should I do??

If the outside diameter of the tire is 26 inches, the Bestop # B6102601 spare tire cover would be a perfect fit!

If possible, putting the trailer up on jackstands wold be ideal, but the size of the trailer and the surface it's parked on could make that difficult. If that isn't feasible, having the wheels up on boards to that the tires aren't sitting in water is an excellent idea. Sitting in water can cause the wheels to corrode which can cause the tires to leak.
