A tire mounting bracket for vehicles includes an elongated frame having upstanding side members on the forward end thereof which are pivotally connected to the underside of a vehicle for up and down pivotal movement of the rearward end of the frame between a generally horizontal transport position and a downwardly and rearwardly inclined service position. Collapsible tension members limit downward pivotal movement of the rearward end of the frame to the service position therefor. A second tension member is detachably connected to the rearward end of the frame to secure the frame in the transport position. The spare tire is retained on the frame between the second tension member and upstanding side members. A bracket on the underside of the frame cooperates with the rearward end of the frame to receive one end of a lever for pivotally raising and lowering the frame with a spare tire supported thereon.
