utility trailer BEEF UP

[dbc112]

I have those dinky 8 inch wheels... Havent made any trips yet to scared...

Anyone have experience pulling a 4x6 trailer with the dinky wheels? How did they hold up?

I have been looking around for the largest 4 lug wheels that would fit.. I have seen some forums with civic wheels/tires! Funny..

Any suggestions? I want to go BIG, so I can cruise down the highway at 65-70 mph rather than 45.. .

actually we had one of those trailers 5x8. the little golf cart lookin wheels and all. live in polk county florida (dead center). we took the trailer to georgia and way down south before. about a 4 hour ride there and 4 hours backl. no problem. keep a spare, maybe two.

we would cruise at about 75mph. however we would go as fast as 90mph at times. no probs. ill try to find a picture

as long as you keep the bearings greased you should be fine. maybe do it mid trip if you can.

a larger tire will defiantly help. if not look to replace bearings after a while.

Thanks everyone.. I have a spare, and the trip is only 1.5 hours... just wanted to be sure they would hold up...

I found some 12 inch rims on northern tool.. I may get that and use the 8 inchers as my spare set...
