A system for storing a spare tire within a vehicle includes a support surface, a rear tire brace, and a front restraint member. The support surface supports the spare tire. The support surface has a rearward portion on which a rearward radial portion of the spare tire is supported and a forward portion on which a forward radial portion of the spare tire is supported. The rear tire brace is spaced apart from the rearward portion of the support surface for limiting lifting movement of the rearward radial portion of the spare tire. The front restraint member is removably secured to the forward portion of the support surface for limiting at least one of forward, lateral and lifting movement of the spare tire on the support surface.
