Default Things To Know About Tires...

When you park the boat trailer for the winter months...
1) Idealy, a paved or cemented area that keep the tires away from standing water...

2) In unpaved areas, use wooden planking, two inches high or more to keep the tires away from standing water, and also at least two inches wider than the tire tread contact area, ( width ).

3) Get tire covers to protect them from UV rays and cover them.

4) . Ive been out here for years ( stressing for folks to read their Owners Manuals ). Much of the above suggestions are in there.

5) Here's a video from Michelin tire, that may save your life, and your wallet at the same time. http://www.michelinrvtires.com/miche...er_Should_Know

I hope this helps,


Terry
