Tire holder?

Pitbull makes a fabulous rack for extra rims/tires but it is $324. Anyone know of a good rack that I can use them to store my extra rims in the trailer? I love the pitbull but right now 300 is out of budget.

Does it need to hold the tires while the trailer is in motion too?

What about something like this? You could upgrade as needed.

That's why I asked if you used the etrack on the wall in your trailer when I stopped by to help you open the garage the other day.

I was looking at the tires on the floor and figurin'.

I store mine along the side of the trailer using a rubber strap and some tennis balls.

I got one of these. I mounted it so the tire sets up on the inner fender for more space. Worked pretty nice except they provide a 4" and 6" bolt, I needed 5". Also there bolt is just that, so tightening it is reaching through the tire and holding the bolt from turning.
