New 14" Trailer Tires and Aluminum Rims Installed Today

Postby sandman » Fri Mar 23, 2007 9:01 pm

Something finally did go right with my build. The Aluminum rims I bought off Ebay got here yesterday and I dropped them off at the tire place today and had new 14" radials installed. Got them home and immediately went to yanking the ugly 15" rims off that the builder put on.

Fresh tires and rims ready to mount.

New Wheels installed on the trailer and ready to roll. The new rims are pleasing to my eyes. Another step finally taken in a slow build.
