Bigger tires

Postby tawright915 » Mon Feb 08, 2016 4:57 pm

I acquired a Palomino trailer and am converting it to a Widget (but bigger). Can I put bigger tires on this or do I need to stick with the ones on it currently?

Thanks
Tom

If you can remove a section of the outrigger portion of your frame in front and behind each tire, then you can move up to any size tire you want. I assume you will be building the wheel well when you construct the floor so you can control your vertical clearance with that design. You may need adapters to go to a five lug wheel from your four lug hub if you plan to keep the existing torsion axle.
