Why there is a wire to the backup tire?

I just noticed yesterday, that seems like a electric wire connected to the backup tire, any idea what's that?
 
it's the wire to power the subwoofer that fits in the middle of the spare? not sure what wire you are talking about but that one is a thick wire
 
Just ripped everything out two nights ago to install my wiring harness for my trailer. The only thing i saw that looks like what you could be talking about is the wire that runs to the sub, which is mounted on top of your spare tire. Its the plastic housing in the center. on the 18, it runs from the bottom right, to the top right across the foam and into the tire. If its not this, post a pic so we can see.
 
While we're on the subject of spare tires a good thing to do every once in awhile is pop it out and make sure it has the proper air pressure.
