Zusammenfassung:	A vehicle spare wheel carrier comprising a plate adapted to be suspended from the chassis of the vehicle and provided with a fixed hook and a movable hook. The periphery of the central opening in the wheel is engaged with the fixed hook and the wheel is then pivoted about the fixed hook until the periphery of the central opening clicks into engagement with the movable hook to support the wheel from the plate. The movable hook is guided for rectilinear movement towards and away from the fixed hook to facilitate positive engagement of the periphery of the central opening with the movable hook. A handle is provided on the movable hook to facilitate disengagement of the movable hook with the periphery of the central opening when the wheel is to be removed from the carrier and to manipulate the movable hook in case it does not properly engage the periphery of the central opening.
