Re: [OMC-Boats] Spare wheel for trailer

You can also check out AG-suppliers, like www.gemplers.com they carry a lot of different rim sizes.

Another possible source is your local commercial airport. I replaced the tires on my trailer the day I bought it in Sep '08 as the old tires were so old. I removed the rims and took them to a local tire dealer near DFW airport before trailering it the 20 miles home. They told me the OEM rims are the same as used on airport baggage carts and that they could easily get me a spare rim from there if I needed one. I temporarily deferred as I knew I wasn't going anywhere for a long while once I got the boat home. I'll need to persue it this spring when boating season gets underway in earnest. It's worth checking out if you have such an airport near you.

Hello and happy new year. I am looking for a spare wheel for my evinrude trailer, the 6.90 6.0 9. I have just bought three 10 ply tires from a tire dealer here in Maine. If anyone has swapped to another size wheel and has an old one, I would like to buy one. Bob Erickson DMD 1970 Sportsman
