That part is easy. You can weld studs that support wheel when installing or removing, and then bolt it down with lug nuts. That’s how I built my present spare carrier.
My previous C was a little different if I recall correctly. The carrier had a lip on it that i could hook the wheel’s center hole on so I could then use bolts.
For a heavier wheel I’d use both — support and studs — to make it easier. Much like a wheel is installed on a rear axle.
