At $150, the Starlink Mini Spare Tire Mount from Two Track Nation offers a simple, functional way to mount your Starlink antenna without sacrificing valuable roof space. By using the flat spot on top of your rear-mounted spare tire, it clears the way for rooftop tents, solar panels, or gear storage—while still keeping your connection live in camp or on the move.

This isn’t just a clever location—it’s a rethink of how Starlink Mini gets deployed on overland and off-road rigs. Most mounts on the market are fixed-position and complicated to install. Two Track Nation’s solution is straightforward and tool-free. It allows the antenna to rotate for better signal alignment, which can be especially helpful when parked near trees, rock walls, or structures that block part of the sky.

That adjustability also comes in handy when camping in the rain. If your spare tire is mounted on a swing-out carrier, like the one shown in product photos, the antenna often ends up outside the awning’s coverage when the swing-out is deployed. That can improve your chances of maintaining a fast signal even when hunkered down under cover.

The company says it spent six months testing the mount on rough roads throughout Colorado, Utah, and Arizona. According to Two Track Nation, the setup held up in rain, snow, and high winds—even at sustained highway speeds. While the Starlink Mini is rated to withstand winds up to 60 mph, the mount’s position behind the vehicle reduces exposure by placing it in a low-pressure zone. On vehicles with unusually high tire carriers—like the GX in the test fleet—the system reportedly performed without issue at speeds up to 85 mph. Still, Two Track Nation advises caution if your tire sits within six inches of the roofline, as wind loading increases significantly in that case.

Several thoughtful design details help keep the mount stable and secure on the trail. Molded-in teeth grip the tire’s tread, while relief cuts keep the ratchet strap from shifting under tension. A slotted platform captures the OEM Starlink bolt, preventing it from working loose or falling off. As a backup, the mount includes a washer and nut that thread onto the Starlink bolt for additional peace of mind.

When it’s time to break camp, removal is quick and easy—just unclip the bracket and unplug the cable. No tools or disassembly are required.
