Yes, the doorframes aren't really up to the weight, nor are
two hinges really adequate to the load. Many folks add a
third hinge at the center (to the box or roof) to add some
loadbearing capability.
THe other problem is that a tyre there is going to mess
with the usability of a hitch and other things (like
breakover angle).
Put it on the bonnet where it belongs! <grin>.
