Yep, disconnect the sub and set it aside, there should be a gold bolt that runs through it and holds the tire down. Make sure that when you go to put it back in that the foam riser-blocks are situated properly so they all touch the spare.

I always carry a small compressor with me in case I get a flat and my spare tire is out of air.
