An exterior-mounted spare wheel carrier for a vehicle. The carrier is capable of rotating about a substantially horizontal axis and a substantially vertical axis to allow the spare wheel to be lowered to a position proximate the ground to facilitate the changing of a vehicle's wheel. The spare wheel carrier is releasably secured in a substantially horizontal plane by a tension member. The rotation of spare wheel carrier about a substantially vertical axis is governed by a governing mechanism. The spare wheel carrier is releasably held in a traveling position by an engaging mechanism and a safety latch.
