ABSTRACT:
A storage device which fits within the rim of a spare tire and can be locked to secure its contents against unauthorized access and to lock the spare tire itself. A pan shaped container has a closed bottom which is secured to the hub of the wheel by the same fasteners that mount the spare wheel to its mounting bracket on the exterior of the vehicle. The interior of the container provides a storage compartment for tools and other articles. A removable cover panel encloses the storage compartment and can be locked in place on the container by a key operated cylinder lock. The storage device can be used with a flexible tire cover which covers the spare tire and is secured to the cover panel of the container by the cylinder lock in cooperation with a large washer.
