Solution for Moving Trailer Tires Farther Away From Body of Trailer

Updated 08/25/2015 | Published 08/24/2015

Question:

I need a 6 x 5.5 inch trailer wheel spacer. My horse trailer tires rub even without a load. I need to get the tires away from the body of the trailer. I feel 2inch added distance on each side will take care of the problem. Do you sell these? If so please send me a link???

We do not offer a wheel spacer such as you describe. Adding two inches of spacers wouldn't be the best solution for your problem, as the wheel studs almost certainly wouldn't be long enough.

Your best bet to more the tires out away from the trailer would be to replace your existing trailer wheels with wheels that have a negative offset, if available.

If you would care to reply with your tire size, I'd be happy to see if we offer wheels that would work for you.
