Does Spare Tire Affect Installation of Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch on 2016 Ram ProMaster City
Question:
My pro city has a factory installed full sized spare tire. How will this affect the installation and fit of the draw tite hitch? Thanks!

Helpful Expert Reply:
A full-size spare tire on your 2016 Ram ProMaster City will not affect the installation or fit whatsoever of the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75219.
The reason is the hitch gets installed behind the bumper cover, as you can see by the linked installation instructions. So the spare tire of your van is not going to be a hindrance or come into play during the install.
Along with the instructions I have also added a link to a video install for you to check out of the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75219.
If you are looking to do some towing and need trailer wiring as well, the correct harness for your ProMaster City is the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118719.
