My trailer came with the coveted "rare-and-stupid" 16.5" rims/tires.
After a highway blowout, and the resulting knowledge that 16.5 tires are rare and "good luck with that".
I needed some new.
So.... Found these. With free ship, I bought ONE to test fit, make sure it would clear the brake, etc.
ONE came quickly. Ordered 3 more.. on back order Not a big deal, I can't really move the trailer until spring anyway... but still, who likes to wait?!
Now that I have 16" wheels, a new tire, if needed, should be readily available. I also plan to keep 1-2 of the old ones that hold air as a spare.
For a few bucks more per wheel, I think they look pretty cool...
They shipped fast, ready to bolt up. Even set to 80 PSI.
Now if only they would ship me the final 3...
