- Wide, boot-friendly steps and integrated foot pegs
- Updated hardware and mounting components
- Continued improvements based on real-world use and customer feedback
Built for Real-World Adventure
The Rover Vans Tire Carrier + Ladder was designed by van owners who understand how exterior gear is actually used.
The system securely relocates your full-size spare tire to the rear of the van, freeing up valuable space while maintaining easy access when you need it. The integrated ladder provides a convenient way to reach roof racks, cargo boxes, solar panels, kayaks, and other rooftop equipment.
Its clean, purpose-built design integrates naturally with the Sprinter while delivering the functionality needed for travel, camping, overlanding, and everyday use.
Premium Construction
Rover Gear is engineered for long-term use — not simply to look good on the day it is installed.
The Tire Carrier + Ladder is constructed from lightweight aluminum, providing an excellent balance of strength, durability, and weight without the unnecessary mass of heavy steel alternatives.
We also carefully select the hardware used throughout the system. Rover uses automotive-grade, OEM-quality fasteners and mounting components chosen for strength, reliability, and long-term durability. Protective anti-corrosion coatings help defend critical hardware against moisture, rain, snow, road spray, salt, dirt, and years of exposure to the elements.
From the structure to the smallest fastener, every component is selected with long-term performance in mind.
Built to Look Good for Years, Not Just One Season
Exterior van accessories live in a harsh environment. Sun, moisture, road salt, dirt, snow, and temperature changes can quickly expose the difference between a product engineered for durability and one built primarily around cost.
Rover takes a different approach.
Our exterior products feature a durable finish engineered for years of outdoor exposure and are backed by an industry-leading 10-year no-fade finish warranty.
That means you can adventure with confidence knowing your Rover Gear was designed to maintain its appearance instead of fading, corroding, or showing premature wear after only a few seasons outdoors.
Industry-Leading Warranty
We build Rover Gear for the long haul, and we stand behind it.
Every Rover Tire Carrier + Ladder is backed by:
- 5-Year Product Warranty
- 10-Year No-Fade Finish Warranty
Because premium adventure gear should still look good and perform the way it should years after installation.

Designed by Van People, for Van People
Rover products are developed by people who actually use adventure vans.
We design, test, manufacture, and continuously improve our products based on real-world experience. That means attention is paid not only to how a product looks, but how it installs, how it functions, how it holds up to the elements, and how it performs years down the road.
We don’t believe premium van gear should be designed around finding the cheapest components available.
Better materials. Better hardware. Better protection. Built the Rover way.

I’m happy to give a shout out to VanLife Outfitters. These folks are an incredible example of how a company should conduct business. Although I’m building a truck camper, I have bought several things from VanLife outfitters and their customer service is bar none . I would never hesitate recommending VanLife outfitters to anyone whether they are building a van camper or boat. And I might add even a tiny home. Everyone that I’ve talked to have been nothing but incredible. In particular, Jason in technical support was an incredible blessing to me. I had a problem with the Aqua Hot Gen 1 heater I bought from them. It was not the heater fault, but something I did. Jason helped bird-dog the solution and together we got it fixed. He stuck with me, did research, and called me back several times to make sure that the problem was resolved. These people know the business, many have their on rigs, which gives them the best experience. Thanks you Vanlife Outfitters!!!!

My husband and I are doing our first vanbuild. As rookies, we have found Vanlife Outfitters to be a trusted resource for ease of product shopping and purchasing, video demonstrations, guidance and excellent customer service. They were particularly a great one-stop shop when building our electrical system.
