Your (?) is likely intended to the OP, but I'll answer for my part of the conversation.....
No place intended for a spare on mine, except under the chassis.

I think I remember your pictures in other threads, your coach has what I'll call the mega storage closet under your rear bed. Those like that that I have seen do have a molded plastic floor with a spare tire location. I've seen some even with a location to hold a nice folding table. Really a nice layout.

My coach has a fairly large storage locker, but nowhere near like yours. There is room for a tire in there, and that's where mine lived until I got the rack. I could still get my chairs and other stuff in there but it was tight with tire in place. Instead there were welded on pivot point tabs built into the chassis rear extension framework, and a threaded rod, forming a three-point attachment layout. i correctly assumed that this was intended for an optional spare tire rack form Thor. (pictured above).

From what I understand, many coaches don't even have those connection point.... no provision at all for a spare!
