Its channel. You should be just fine. PULL the wheels..and do the

way...you DONT want to have a bearing go tits up at 9:34 pm. And buy
a good used spare or even a new tire and wheel. $35 at
Walmart...$25ish at a full iine tire shop for a used wheel and tire.

Btw..if the wheels and tires are "iffy"...you can buy a matching pair
of new rims and new tires for under $65 delivered..on Ebay.

The Deestone tires are pretty decent for a low weight trailer and
boat. Thats what I put a pair of last month on that SeaSpray Cat to
get it home.

Hey Gunner, the seller packed the bearings today so that's a good thing,
It's about 300 miles from me so I need to make sure it's roadworthy. It
comes with a decebt spare, too.

Great!!!

Tires are shot, so I figured I'd get some "tires on rims" from Amazon;
$87 for a pair of Load "C" tires on rims so I don't have to deal with
mounting tires and iffy rims when I get the

12" eh..good price. Mine are 8"...so were a bit cheaper.

BTW nice DS2 you've got there; I like those better than the DS1, but
that's all I have available now.

Good! Most tires on boat trailers die in about 8 yrs...less if you
are keeping them covered. The sun kills em.

Gack...sorry about that..I was doing something else when I wrote that
bit of idiocy.

Sun (UV) kills tires. If you can keep your tires covered..you will
have them last a fair amount of time. Most boat tires that are covered
or out fo direct sun will last about 8 yrs. Less if you are NOT
covering/shading them.

I picked up a bunch of boats that were used up to about 2009. Then
they sat for the next 8-11 yrs. Virtually all of them had their tires
going bad.
