Can I use this with a Honda CR-V -- with a spare tire on the back door?

I don't know about the CRV bet I use it on my jeep wrangler with the spare mounted on the back

I have an 05 Kia Sorento. With the platform down the ramp up with a chair on it I can open the rear hatch. With the platform stowed in the up position I cannot. Hope this helps.P.s. this is with NO hitch extender

We have it on a Honda Pilot, and it works GREAT. Took a nice long trip with it! The spare tire should not be an issue.

I am not sure I would ask uhaul I had to return this ramp because it kept hitting the road as we were driving But I got the hitch installed at uhaul

I used it with a honda Pilot Touring. Some honda tell you not to pull a trailer. To use this you must have a trailer hitch. Check your manual in the glove compartment.

It will not fit on receivers smaller than 2". If your hitch is 2" then it will work fine. I mounted this on a Land Rover with a tire on rear door.

I would think so. As long as you can wrap the cover around the tire. The elastic extends down the sidewall a few inches.

I don't use it for that, but my guess would be no. I have seen other people say it doesn't work well with knobby tires. Maybe swap out the rear with a balloon tire?

I bought this for my camper, I mounted the spare tire on the rear bumper. Not sure depending on the bolt pattern... I think there is two mounting holes for different configurations of wheels. My best guess would be yes.

I think it should work fine. It just slides over the top of the spare tire with some straps that go around underneath. I found it a little wobbly with the bike on the rack so I just put some bungees to the corners of the bumpers. Good luck.

If the spare tire sticks out past the bumper towards the rear it will probably limit you to carrying only one bike.

I wouldn't risk it - depends on the length of the crossbar compared to the distance from the rear window to the back edge of the trunk - too long a crossbar might leave the top tube resting on the trunk rear edge. Too short might mean the bike seat sits in the middle of the trunk with the bike weight acting on it. With a flat backed car (station wagon or SUV) the bike hangs down with most of its weight supported on the cups and very little weight on the body work of the car. It is a great system if it fits - first use is a bit of a leap of faith though.....expensive bike held on by suction!

I have a rack as well. as long as it not past the back of your tire, i think it would be fine. good luck

I'm using this for my 1998 Honda Valkyrie Tourer, I have a rear tire mounted on the front (double dark side). It holds the bike very nicely!

I would not do it myself. I might put it behind the tire but then you might forget to retrieve it.

I use an extension with mine, my cx-9 doesn´t have a spare tire, however, with that extension I can open the door with the bike in the rack, the distance between the rack and the entrance of the hitch is 9", with that information, just check which is the distance extra that you need and find the right extension, just be aware that using an extension lowers the weight limit by a half, I mean, for example, if the rack has 100 lb of weight limit, with an extension the new limit will be 50 lb, I hope that this answer helps

David,I have a camper van with the spare wheel mounted on the back door. That was the reason I got the extension. It works great with mybicycle rack. It extends beyond the wheel/tire and I use it when I go camping and want to take my mountain bike.

Yes I can and I have a Subaru outback wagon. And you can also lock the rack in a mounted position which also gives a little peace of mind.

yes you can. you lower the 'resistance bar' that the tire would rest on for resistance, until it is no longer touching the tire.

I would say no you can not, we mounted ours to the frame on the rear tire so the dog can't pull away

This does not fit Jeep Wrangler with the spare tire. Even if you sacrifice the use of the back door, spare tire is too high that you can bolt in both 3/8" x 3 to hold it up. This is great for SUVs with verticle hatchbacks but not for Jeep Wrangler type of back doors and spare tires.

If you are talking about the Honda Ridgeline with the "hidden" bed, then no. The rail that holds the cover will still be in place. It will only allow you to open the area where the spare tire is about eighteen inches.
