► All States Trailer Spares | Spare Wheels Carriers

Secure Spare Wheel Storage, Faster Roadside Access & Greater Towing Confidence

What happens when you need a spare tyre & can't access it quickly?

A spare wheel is only valuable if it's securely mounted, protected during transport & immediately available when needed. Whether you're towing across regional Australia, heading off-road, managing a commercial fleet or travelling with a caravan, a properly mounted spare wheel can turn a potential breakdown into a quick roadside tyre change.

All States Trailer Spares Spare Wheel Carriers are trusted by Australian trailer owners, transport operators, caravan enthusiasts, farmers, tradespeople, fleet managers & equipment hire businesses who understand the importance of staying prepared. By securely mounting spare wheels to trailers, these carriers help maximise storage space, improve safety & ensure replacement wheels remain accessible whenever unexpected tyre issues arise.

For complete trailer maintenance & towing solutions, many operators also combine these products with Vehicle Inspection, Tyre & Wheel Services & Safety Reflectors & Emergency Gear.

What Are Spare Wheel Carriers?

A flat tyre rarely arrives at a convenient time. Spare Wheel Carriers provide a dedicated mounting solution that keeps replacement wheels secure, protected & ready for immediate use when required.

Instead of allowing spare wheels to move freely inside trailers, vehicles or storage compartments, these systems create a fixed retention point that improves organisation whilst reducing damage caused by vibration during transport.

Benefits include:

► Secure spare wheel storage
► Faster roadside wheel access
► Improved trailer organisation
► Reduced wheel movement during transport
► Improved towing safety
► Better use of storage space
► Protection for spare wheels
► Reliable wheel retention
► Suitable for long-distance towing

Many transport operators consider spare wheel carriers an essential investment because downtime caused by tyre failures often costs far more than the carrier itself.

Why Spare Wheel Carriers Matter?

Experienced operators know tyre failures aren't a matter of if, but when.

When a puncture occurs on a remote highway, construction project or regional property, having immediate access to a spare wheel can save hours of downtime & eliminate unnecessary disruption.

Quality spare wheel carriers help:

► Improve roadside preparedness
► Protect spare tyres from damage
► Improve storage efficiency
► Support safer transport
► Reduce trailer clutter
► Improve emergency access
► Minimise downtime
► Improve towing confidence

Without a dedicated spare wheel mounting system, operators often face:

► Loose wheels during transport
► Reduced storage space
► Difficult wheel access
► Increased damage risk
► Slower roadside repairs
► Reduced operational efficiency

Before long-distance towing, many operators utilise Vehicle Inspection procedures to ensure wheels, tyres & mounting systems remain roadworthy.

For mounting hardware selection, many operators also reference Fastener Guide Bolts Screws Anchors when installing wheel carrier systems.

Protect Against Corrosion

Regular inspections help identify corrosion before mounting strength is affected.

Match Carrier Capacity Correctly

Always ensure the carrier suits the wheel size & weight being mounted.
