Ten Inch Tyre Fitting for a Trailer
From classic Mini 12's to mahoosive 24 inch tyres that can be found on Range Rovers. With the equipment on board our van, we can fit all in between. But, when a customer came to us about 10 inch tyres for their trailer, we thought outside the box, rearranged our equipment and said that we can indeed put their tyres on for them.
Upon arrival, we inspected the trailer before taking off the old wheels to see if there was any uneven wear. As most trailers are single axle, we can't check the alignment. However, if it were to be a twin axle trailer, we will be able to take a look at the alignment. However, as they don't have track rod ends, we won't be able to adjust it!
Back to the tyres, the old Hankook tyres were removed from the alloy by hand instead of on the machine. By hand! This method was incredibly labour intensive but, we don't change any more. It just takes a bit more time! With the tiny 10 inch tyre off the alloy, we inspected the inside for any corrosion. With none spotted, we installed the new 195/55 R10 tyres (again, by hand!). Installed and cleaned, the wheels were then balanced and installed it back onto the trailer.
