Receiver hitch tire carrier options?

I have a Marlin rear tube bumper and I'm looking at options for a rear tire carrier. Ultimately I'd like to do a swing out type one but I dont' do fabrication and I dont' want to pay a ton for it. I have seen a few cool fold down ones notably this one from CTI. It plugs into the receiver and has a pin you pull to fold it down if you need in the back.



This guy has a neat swing out one



Anybody have any examples they'd like to share?

My spare rides to the trails on whoevers trailer is coming. If no one else trailers, then it rides in my back seat.

When we wheel, it stays on whoevers trailer is at the trail head. If no one trailers, it stays in camp, I plug tires on the trail and limp back to camp. Worst case we send a runner back to camp for it.

Hanging a mounted 37 is a lot of tire. God bless you for ditching the roof idea.
