We have a cheapy from super cheap auto.. think it was around $35?

We have one on the Jayco and our friends that we travel also have one on their Jayco AND Landcruiser.

The good:
Cheap
look ok

The Bad:
They do tend to fade after a long time in the sun (ours have not but I have seen a few faded ones around)
The zips on the bottom are crap

I actually had mine come off the spare wheel (I swear someone snuck up and undid it.. cant have been me forgetting anything) and dragged it for a couple of kms.. has a few scuffs in it but otherwise all good!! We dont use the zip on the bottom, only the flap at the top (we just put a bin liner in there and lift it out when full)

hope that helps, obviously you can spend a bit on these bags but we opted to get the cheap ones and replace them down the track when they die..

Mate gave me one that he had as a spare, he got it as a freebie when he subscribed to a certain 4wd mag.  Used the bag on a recent 4wd weekend.  Bag lasted one day before the straps broke off and the bag was swinging off the spare.  The idea of the bag worked well but just not a freebie.  Will be looking for a more reliable one.

x2 for the Bushranger 'Wheeliebin'

Pros - very good construction

cons - It's a prick to get over the rear tyre.  In saying this, it's not a fault of the bin but the spare tyre has no gap between the tyre and the rear door. (prado 150 with tyre cover removed, 265x70's)

I still take it and find somewhere to put it on the CT.  Very handy to keep the stink of old rubbish out of the car.  Also keep larger camp visitors out (roos, cats, etc).

I now have the MSA one with the side pockets, it's great for all sorts of gear. It's lasted a couple of years so far without so much as a stray thread.

I had one of those magazine ones and a roof top bag, neither lasted one trip without falling apart........

I bought one off fleabay which was great and it was a private seller. I have to rummage through the camping gear to find the name for you. However anything larger than a 265x16, you might have troubles fitting.

I have one made by all-terain campers for the NSW 4wd Acc which fits a 285 tyre made from the same stuff as camper trailer dust cover, great for wet canvas, rubbish, or even kids toys for when you pull up for lunch,eg frisbee, grip ball,those throwing things (vortex)

I also have a Supercheap one.  The clip was cracked from new.  I thought about taking it back but was in a hurry to get away on the trip I bought it for, so I taped it up and it seems to be ok.  Certainly was a dust magnet in the Wonangatta. :-\

Post by: bussoboy on December 20, 2012, 08:12:05 AM
mine comes from that cetain mag store

other than it never sits on the tyre correctly and is always sagging down and getting in the way of hook up etc ( this may be to me fitting it incorrectly??), i love it, it acts as my campsite rubbish bin and when it gives up the ghost, i'll spend some $$ and get a better quality one

Post by: KingBilly on December 20, 2012, 08:20:28 AM
We have the one from Super Cheap.  Fits over the spare on the tailgate of the CT.  The clip on the first one I bought would do up put popped open when you put a bit of tension on the strap.  An obvious design fault with the clip.  Took it back and replaced it.  The replacement's clip was a totally different design.   Have used it twice without any dramas.

we had one of those Ridge Ryder bags and on the first trip the zipper on the arse busted open and dumped all of our rubbish on the QAA Line. For the blacktop thet would be OK but off road with corrugations and washouts etc they are no good IMO.

Another super cheap ridge Ryder. Fits over a 285/75/16 muddie  and still works after hauling my rubbish all over cape York. When on sale for $20 you can't go wrong. Bottom zip was a little stiff from red dust but hose and spray of lanox fixed that.

Super Cheap Ridge Ryder just used it for the French and QAA line used a cable tie to ensue the bottom zips didn't open. Worked well won't spend more

This is probably the right ideal.
Its a garbage bag/firewood bag/muddy stuff bag.

I wouldnt spend too much either

I bought one of the super cheap ones. Wont fit the car 315/75/16! Fits on the camper but obscures the number plate which is mounted on the spare tyre  :-[  so it can onlu be used when stationary.  Well planned purchase that one.

Post by: gclan on April 11, 2013, 07:56:20 AM
I think ours is MSA too. I can't figure out how to fit it either(that's hubby's domain), but it's put up with a hell of a beating and still hangs on ;D

Haven't looked at any others so I can't comment on how it compares.



That photo makes it look really tiny but it does hold quite a bit when full.

Post by: D4D on September 07, 2013, 10:04:58 AM
I updated to an MSA bag as the Ridge Ryder was too low and setting off the rear sensors. What a PTIA to fit, must be designed for a Nissan. Overall it is good quality but the zips are hard enough to close new let alone when they get dust and crap on them.

Post by: Brumbypt on September 07, 2013, 11:05:08 AM
I know they are an essential bit of gear these days, way better than leaving the rubbish behind,

but they look so ugly on the back of ppls rigs..

look for one that will blend into your back tyre and has strong straps, good stitching, and good thick material.


Carry on...
