    You might need to know what hub it's off as the hole in the middle can be different sizes and may not fit. If it's indespension try.

    Cool - has there been any feedback from the lads advertising trailer parts on done deal??? any good or bad reviews???


    A lad in Athlone will post the wheel and hub for 90 squids.... second hand would be the job for about 20 squids!

    Sometimes it's better to spend the extra few quid to get the right part especially when it's carrying your boat, trailer tyres are not the same as car tyres they are built for side to side sway where as car tyres are built for comfort you also have to take into account the camber of the wheel.
    Don't be fooled by false economy it can come back to bite you :D
