Helpful Expert Reply:

I do have an option for you but the etrailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier part # e98ZR won't allow you to open the doors on your Sprinter van without first removing the carrier. Instead, you'll want to use a spare tire carrier like the Roadmaster Spare Tire Carrier part # RM-195125 which allows you to swing the tire down for door clearance as well as easier loading.

If cost is your primary concern you can use a swing-away adapter with the etrailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier like the Saris Swing Away Hitch Extender for Bike Racks part # SAR36VR to open the rear doors. This setup won't be as nice as the Roadmaster Spare Tire Carrier but it will still get the job done and save you some money.
