2018 SX190 with trailer (spare tire)

I just got my spare tire I put it up against the original trailer tires and it's just a hair higher than the original Tire would that be okay to use for a spare?
Yes, that will be just fine.
I would be more concerned that the bolt pattern is correct.
A quick test fit will answer that question.

Yes most likely. You would need to have a fairly larger sidewall size to worry with touching the fenders, which btw can be modded to be raised if need be.
 
Does anyone know how this locks your spare tire from being stolen lol cant figure it out

Swapped them to radials and it was night and day difference in towing. Very much worth the upgrade.

Amen. Bias ply tires totally suck. $30 piece of crap tires rolling our $65K+ boats. Ugh. Geez, its not a wheelbarrow.
 
So I installed everything from the pics I hope the boat clears when launching and loading? Any advice?

Just rims. They are 5x4.5 lug pattern and 13 inches. I bought Carlisle radial HD 185/80r13 load range d. These radial's ride so much better than those stock bias ply's
