That is a possibility, just saying it's a 8 year old trailer and no one has noticed (or fixed it), but maybe it has never had a spare tire installed.

Did your trailer come with the crank to lower the tire? Could you just drill a hole in the skirt? Alternatively, could you use a ratcheting wrench to lower the tire if you don't want to drill a hole?

It did have the crank, a hole will be the easiest fix, or just throw the spare in the back of the truck. It's that half moon thing so will have to go with the crank handle.
After spending most of the weekend getting little things fixed and figured out it just baffled me that it was that way.
