The South Texas sun has literally beat the (fairly heavy canvas) spare tire cover on our TT to death...We got it, along with the TT, in January 2019...

On a previous trailer, had a hard-shell plastic spare tire cover that kept its looks and utility for years....

In looking for a replacement cover for the spare, I'm seeing only soft covers except for a few branded to a specific vehicle (ex. a Jeep logo) or covers that have a hard-plastic 'face' but the band around the tire is fabric of some sort

Ideas where to find a full plastic spare=tire cover?
Thanks

3.5 years and 4 Texas summers works out to about $5/year in tire cover costs.
That would be the least of my concerns with a RV getting cooked in the sun 24/7/365.

South Carolina weather did the same to my 2019 TT spare tire cover. I just went with a cheap no graphic replacement. If it last 3 years I will be happy and buy a new one once again.
